Volume 2: Entering the Ghost Feast by Mistake Verse 121: The search fails
Doodle, doodle......
Just as Zhang Su finished practicing the exorcist formation he learned from Song Yibing, he heard the mobile phone ringing, Zhang Su dispersed the ground disgust formation, put away the Tianjing Bracelet Soul Ring, looked at the caller ID on the mobile phone, picked up the phone and asked, "Hey, Zitong, is there anything wrong?" ”
"I didn't answer the phone for a long time, I thought you were asleep, I told you about the reward of the Guan family." Pu Zitong replied.
"How's Sister Lu's investigation?" Hearing that it was about the Guan family's reward, Zhang Su asked with interest.
"Well, it's just about to talk about this matter, Sister Lu'er went to find the people of the Guan family in the morning, and the information she got was very limited, since the last time the little ghost escaped, the Guan family has lost almost all the clues, just provided the residual soul power of the little ghost and a few locations that have been infested, Sister Lu'er went to these locations in the afternoon according to these information, although she traced some traces of the little ghost, but in the end the clues were broken, the little ghost seemed to use soul power to create a lot of smoke bombs in order to avoid tracking, left a lot of soul traces and illusions, and the few traces that Sister Lu'er followed finally returned to their original places, which was very weird. Pu Zitong said.
"Rounded back?" Hearing Pu Zitong's explanation, Zhang Su was not so surprised, if that little ghost would have that kind of space flickering escape skills, it would be really difficult to track, and it was normal for the clues to be interrupted somewhere, the only thing that made Zhang Su a little puzzled was Pu Zitong's last statement, so he asked puzzled.
"That's right, that's what Sister Lu'er told me." Pu Zitong confirmed.
"Zitong, can you give you the phone to Sister Lu'er? I'd like to hear her explain in more detail. Zhang Su asked.
"Sister Lu'er! Zhang is looking for you. Just after Zhang Su finished asking, Pu Zitong shouted on the other end of the phone.
After a while, Zhang Su only heard the sound of "whooshing" water on the phone.
"What's the matter, little brother? I'm taking a bath, didn't I let Zitong tell you what I should say? As soon as the sound of the water was interrupted, He Lu's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I'm sorry, but I just wanted to make sure you said you were tracking back to where you were?" Zhang Su asked directly.
"Yes, I went to the place where the shining star imp disappeared at the end, and found a soul remnant near where it disappeared, but the soul remnant was emitted in four different directions, I tracked it in all four directions, and each time I tracked it back to the end, and finally I came back if I couldn't find a more effective clue, and I probably couldn't do it with this bounty, and I couldn't find any trace of it." He Lu said.
"Don't worry, Sister Lu, you haven't taken me to check the scene yet, you said okay and let me accompany you to investigate." Zhang said.
"I've at least figured out where it flickered, what can you do?" He Lu asked with a little questioning.
"The means are not counted, just a little idea, go and verify it tomorrow, if it really doesn't work, it's not too late to give up, how about it?" Zhang Su suggested.
"Yes, then I'll take you there tomorrow, yes
What means do you prepare in advance, go early in the morning, and then I will take Ling'er to do a manicure, don't exceed the appointment time. He Lu agreed.
"Nail art? Okay, what time is it? Zhang Su asked with a wry smile.
"It's 10 a.m. for a manicure, I'll pick you up at 7 a.m. tomorrow morning, give you about three hours, how about that?" Is it enough? He Lu thought about it and asked at a fixed time.
"Okay." Zhang Su nodded and replied.
Hung up the phone, Zhang Su shook his head helplessly, thinking that the reward of the Guan family was still suggested by He Lu to take it, but judging from He Lu's attitude, he always felt that He Lu didn't take this reward seriously at all, and he looked like he didn't care, I don't know if it was because of the frustration in collecting intelligence or the unwillingness to believe in himself, in short, the attitude was not very positive.
However, since He Lu agreed to take him to the place where the shining star imp last appeared, Zhang Su didn't care if He Lu had any strange attitude, when he saw the image of the shining star imp in the Blue Star Theater before, he felt that the escape method of the shining star imp was very powerful, but when he saw the fritter imp using a similar soul skill today, he thought of the image that the Guan family put in the bounty grand view, and suddenly found a strange place, if he guessed correctly, the escape method of the shining star imp is not the same as the fritter imp, It should be more bizarre than the escape soul skill of the fritter imp.
Thinking of this, Zhang Su didn't continue to think about it anymore, since everything was still to be confirmed tomorrow, Zhang Su directly lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Zhang Su heard the sound of his mobile phone vibrating in a daze, and following the direction from which the vibration came, Zhang Su reached out and touched the head of the bed for a while, and after a while, he touched his mobile phone, squinted his eyes and pressed the answer button: "Hey? ”
"Still sleeping? You're a dead pig's head, you haven't answered the phone three times, what time are you looking? Pu Zitong's questioning voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Zitong, what time is it? Well, isn't it only six, seven, seven and ten? Zhang Su replied in a slightly nasal voice.
"It's ten past seven, what time did you have to make an appointment with Sister Lu'er before? You won't forget it yourself, will you? Pu Zitong shouted angrily.
"It's about seven o'clock, huh?! It's past seven o'clock, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I slept. Zhang Su suddenly reacted and quickly apologized.
"Hmph, Sister Lu'er and Sister Ling'er are downstairs with you, you come out quickly, otherwise the property in the community will add parking fees, and foreign vehicles will be charged more than ten yuan for more than fifteen minutes, and you will give this money if you come down late." Pu Zitong snorted coldly.
"Okay, okay, I'll go out, help me say sorry to Sister Lu'er and Sister Ling'er, I'll go down after washing, and wait for me for two or three minutes." Zhang Su said hurriedly, and then a carp turned up from the bed, rushed to the scrubbing room to brush his teeth and wash his face, seeing his hair flying and dancing, Zhang Su wet the water with a towel, rubbed it vigorously on his head, and waited until his hair was slightly shaped, Zhang Su dropped the towel, put on a clean clothes, and locked it when he went out
With the body soul technique, he trotted down the stairs all the way downstairs.
"Over here, you're really fast, and you'll be down in three minutes after putting down the phone." Pu Zitong saw Zhang Su rushing out of the corridor and beckoned in the car.
"Uh-huh, aren't you afraid you're in a hurry? I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long. Zhang explained apologetically.
"It's good to know, come up." Pu Zitong saw that Zhang Su's apology was quite sincere, so he nodded and said.
"This car...... Isn't that a little too ostentatious? Zhang Su looked at the pink BMW that He Lu drove over, and asked with a wry smile.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to take my two younger sisters shopping to get my nails done after that, what kind of car do we girls drive if we don't drive this car? Your business is done by the way, and you can do whatever you have to do after you are done. After Zhang Su asked, He Lu rolled down the window from the car and urged Zhang Su.
"Uh, okay." After listening to He Lu's urging, Zhang Su smiled helplessly, obviously these three people were invited to go out to play together, and they felt that they were the uninteresting spoilers.
Zhang Su could only get into He Lu's car, sit in the back seat with Qu Ling, and nodded to Qu Ling to say hello.
As soon as Zhang Su got in the car, Pu Zitong turned his head from the co-pilot and said to Zhang Su excitedly: "Let me tell you something, I won't go to the company to receive the reward today, today I will accompany Sister Lu'er and Sister Ling'er to go shopping and get your nails done, if you want to go soul hunting, go yourself, I won't accompany you." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, you're busy, don't worry about me." Since Pu Zitong has decided so, Zhang Su can't say anything, so he can only reply.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I was going to partner with you in the next few days to hunt souls, I'm really sorry to change my plan temporarily, but soul hunting can be done at any time, and I finally got together with Sister Lu'er and Sister Ling'er, we little girls need to enhance friendship, and the matter of soul hunting can only be postponed for a while." Pu Zitong explained with a smile.
"I understand, I understand, girls' friendship needs to be cultivated with common interests and hobbies, don't you say it, don't care about me, you just go play." Zhang Su nodded and replied.
"Zhang Su, you know a lot about girls, did you have a girlfriend before Zitong?" After listening to Zhang Su's answer, He Lu asked in the driver's seat, raising his eyes and looking in the rearview mirror.
"No, no, Sister Lu, don't get me wrong, my original roommates all have girlfriends, and I know a little bit about it, but I've never been in love." Hearing He Lu's meaningful question, Zhang Su hurriedly explained.
"Well, this answer is quite passable, you reacted quite quickly, Zhang Sue." He Lu said with a smile, then started the car, kicked the accelerator, and the car drove towards the outside of the community.
Hearing He Lu's weird praise, Zhang Su couldn't help but touch his forehead, he always felt that He Lu didn't see something, but he also felt that He Lu wouldn't ask such a question if he really saw it, could it be that He Lu regarded himself as a scumbag? Zhang Su guessed.
"Okay, Sister Lu'er,
He's just a little virgin, he doesn't understand anything, you see you scared him, don't talk about this, sister, where is the address of that shining star ghost provided by the Guan family? Pu Zitong helped Zhang Su to cover up.
"It's not far from the branch of your Soul Hunter Company, in the warehouse area next to that old factory area." He Lu replied.
"Sister, you were covered in ashes when you came back yesterday, it can't be that little ghost who investigated it, right?" Pu Zitong continued to ask.
"Yes, I followed the trail of the little ghost to the open-air storage site, sneaked in with the body soul technique, and drilled a few big black iron buckets along the track, but I didn't expect that not long after those black barrels were sprayed with paint, I rubbed the black paint on my body after I passed, and I was angry." He Lu said angrily.
Only then did Zhang Su understand why He Lu went to take a shower directly after going home yesterday, and also knew why He Lu had a strange tone since last night, probably because he was a little embarrassed during the investigation.
"No wonder Sister Lu'er was angry when she came back last night, I thought I was fighting with someone, it turns out that this is the case, Sister Lu'er is still working so hard, and the painted iron bucket has to be drilled." Pu Zitong praised.
"Don't be a sycophant, I didn't want to talk to your little boyfriend, I want to take him to receive a bounty and let him experience the real soul master world, who knew that this first bounty would be unsuccessful, I feel embarrassed now." He Lu sighed and said.
"It turns out that Sister Lu'er is for this, oops, how can the reward in the bounty Daguan be 100% done, who will spend a lot of money on the bounty Daguan to hang on the bounty Daguan, okay, I believe that Zhang Su will not laugh at my sister, if he dares to laugh at me, I will sew his mouth, what do you think?" Pu Zitong smiled and comforted He Ludao.
After listening to the conversation between He Lu and Pu Zitong, Zhang Su was even more helpless, feeling that He Lu's previous various targets against himself were out of guilt for himself, thinking that he would be looked down upon if he didn't investigate the information, he never blamed or looked down on He Lu, he didn't understand, how could there be any 100% success in offering a reward, he and Pu Zitong almost lost when they dealt with the junior ghost level, let alone search for a senior ghost who was known for his ability to escape.
"Got it, are you willing to sew your little boyfriend's mouth? Can you still get your mouth down when you're kissing? Forget it, since your little boyfriend thinks he has the ability to find that shining star imp, let him try, if he also fails, forget it, if he really finds the clue to that shining star imp, I can only admit that I am not good at learning. He Lu joked to Pu Zitong.
"I can't say that, the ghast ghost has a lot of tricks, and no one can guarantee that he can deal with all the ghosts if he learns various soul skills, if Zhang Su finds out the shining star ghost, it can only be said that the little ghost has avoided the ability coverage of Sister Lu'er, and Zhang Su just happens to have a means to target that little ghost, and there is no comparison between who is strong and who is weak." Pu Zitong was worried that Zhang Zhen would have an impact on He Lu after he really searched the traces of the shining star ghost, so he hurriedly explained.
"You
That's right, it seems that you agree with your little boyfriend's strength, so I'll see what unique soul-searching methods he has. He Lu saw Pu Zitong helping her explain, but it aroused her curiosity about Zhang Su, and responded strongly.
Zhang Su was sitting in the car, and when he heard the conversation between He Lu and Pu Zitong, he didn't dare to say anything like he was sitting on pins and needles, so he could only pretend to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
Qu Ling didn't speak like Zhang Su, Qu Ling was a little nervous when he first saw Zhang Su sitting next to him, his little face was red with shame, and after seeing Zhang Su turn his face out of the window, Qu Ling was no longer shy, took out his mobile phone, played with his head and watched Lianlian, and slowly forgot about Zhang Su sitting next to him.
The car drove for more than 20 minutes in the secret words of Pu Zitong and He Lu, and soon arrived near the warehouse He Lu said, He Lu parked the car in a roadside parking space, and then took Zhang Su and Pu Zitong to walk in the direction of the warehouse, leaving Qu Ling in the car.
"That's it, this is the place provided to me by the Guan family, and the last place where the Shining Imp appeared is here, you should have an impression of this place, right?" He Lu led Zhang Su and Pu Zitong to an open space in front of the warehouse area and asked Zhang Su.
"I have an impression, this is exactly the same as the image released by the Guan family in the bounty grand view, behind it is the warehouse area for a fee, here is the unloading place in front of the warehouse area, this open space is the place where the Guan family designed to block the shining star imp, and the shining star imp disappeared in the ditch in front, I remember all of this." Zhang said.
"Very good, since you still remember, it's easy to do, according to my investigation, the shining star imp disappeared after using that escape soul technique here, and even the remnants of soul power were interrupted in the place where it disappeared, I followed the direction of its disappearance all the way, and finally found its traces again at the back of this warehouse area, the trail was scattered in four different directions, I traced each direction, and finally returned to the same place in a big circle, Apparently the trail I found again was most likely the smoke screen it left behind, which was used to confuse people. He Lu explained his findings and the results of the final investigation.
"Where's the trail?" Zhang Su asked.
"Near the back wall of this warehouse area." He Lu replied.
"No, I'm asking how the four tracks are distributed." Zhang Su explained.
"Each one goes straight in one direction, and then returns to the origin in a large circle that resembles a semicircle, and the same is true in all four directions, and the four marks together resemble the shape of a windmill." He Lu explained.
"The shape of the windmill? Well, I understand, Sister Lu and Zitong, you wait here, my soul out of my body will go through this warehouse area to the back to investigate, and I will have the result when I come back later, if my guess is proven to be wrong, then there is nothing I can do. Zhang Wei pondered for a moment, and said to He Lu and Pu Zitong with a smile.
"What are you going to do? Isn't that fritter ghost we met yesterday similar to this shining star imp? you
Is it something that comes to mind? Pu Zitong asked.
"It's a little similar, but it's not the same, don't ask so much, and I'll tell you my judgment when I get back." Zhang Su replied.
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Su released his soul and floated towards the warehouse area blocked by iron railings, and the soul passed through one warehouse after another, and finally landed outside the back wall of the warehouse area, lying on the ground to check the subtle remnants of the soul power of the shining star ghost.
Pu Zitong and He Lu chatted and waited for Zhang Su, ten minutes passed, and seeing that Zhang Su's soul had not floated back, Pu Zitong was a little nervous, frowning and said, "Why did you go for so long?" ”
"What kind of means does he have? Didn't you know that you've been with him for so long? He Lu asked.
"I know one thing, it's similar to Sister Lu'er's exploration methods, and it's also to explore the residual soul power, but I don't know how far he can probe." Pu Zitong replied.
"Then I guess there is no hope, the remnants of the little ghost's soul power on that windmill pattern have been interrupted, and there is no trace of continuation at all, not at all, I can guarantee this." He Lu said.
"So what did he do? Why don't I go find him? Pu Zitong asked anxiously.
"Well, go ahead, don't encounter any difficult ghosts, you should be careful." He Lu guessed.
"Don't go, I'm back." Just as Pu Zitong was about to leave, Zhang Su's voice came from behind Pu Zitong, but no matter how Pu Zitong and He Lu searched, they didn't see Zhang Su.
"Is it Zhang? Where are you? Hearing Zhang Su's voice, Pu Zitong asked in horror.
Zhang Su slowly appeared behind Pu Zitong and replied, "Here." ”
