Chapter 36: This Damn Life 04
Sending the police away, when Wen Xia cleaned up the house, he also rummaged through the house.
Like those people, she didn't find the bell.
The useful books and notes at home are almost ruined.
However, Wen Xia found the codex left by his master, as well as a walnut-sized ball.
The Codex probably escaped because it appeared to have no words and no traces of use.
Wen Xia was able to find it, or because the codex heated up when he picked it up, which attracted Wen Xia's attention.
Then Wen Xia watched, the codex seemed to come to life, and the words and pictures slowly emerged.
Paper is no longer brand new.
At first glance, it has been passed down for a long time, but it is just very well preserved.
The woman holding the umbrella on the top one even bowed slightly to greet Wen Xia.
Wen Xia turned the next page in a trance.
Then she found out that it was not just a matter of not being able to read and understand, but a problem of not knowing a word!
However, in the next second, these words were like life, scrambling to drill into her head.
For a moment, Wen Xia felt as if his head was about to explode.
The system kept telling her to hold on.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that Wen Xia collapsed on the ground covered in sweat and exhaled.
The knowledge from the Codex had been recorded in her mind.
Wen Xia rearranged the codex.
When the classical beauty on the front page bows to her, the contents disappear again, and the paper returns to its new appearance.
Wen Xia once again refreshed her perception of the world.
Wen Xia, who has learned a new skill, sends the four ghosts floating on the ceiling back to where they belong.
Then he stared at the small, delicately crafted ball in a daze.
Wen has few family members and high talents, fortune telling, ghost hunting, and feng shui can be ranked in the industry, but the most famous is puppetry.
They can turn paper figures, puppets, painted people, and so on into their companions.
It is said that they can even turn large living people into puppets of their own control.
It's just that manipulating the living also requires the magic weapon that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Wen family, the copper bell.
Ringtones can make the bewildered person sober, or it can make the sober person lose himself and become a puppet.
As long as the user is strong enough, having this bell is equivalent to owning thousands of horses.
But the bell has been gone for hundreds of years.
Whether it was lost, taken to the grave, or still hidden in the hands of the Wen family, no one except the Wen family knows it.
There's all the speculation out there.
However, in fact, this copper bell was made by the predecessors of the Wen family to hide it and change its appearance.
And in the records of the Wen family, this copper bell did not ring hundreds of years ago.
It's useless for anyone to shake it.
It's no wonder that the ball was left on the desk and not taken away.
Wen Xia tried to open the shell.
But the seniors are so good at craftsmanship, and the quality of this thing is also very good.
Wen Xia even tried this method with a hammer, but he didn't open it.
She had to find a rope to hang it up and wear it around herself disguised as an ornament.
The next day, Wen Xia turned on the computer and entered the internal forum of the Xuanmen, which was commonly used by the master in the past.
The account is automatically logged in, and the ID name is a simple "smell".
Wen Xia took a general look, and the forum was mainly divided into three sections.
Daily communication, task release, free trading.
As soon as Wen Xia went online, he received several private messages.
Most were asking who she was.
There are also a few who probably guessed it, and sent a private message to confirm whether she was the little girl adopted by the Wen family.
These people's IDs are also very concise.
Wen Xia knew at a glance that they were all bigwigs in the industry.
A few of them are still friends with Master.
At the funeral, I saw them all.
Wen Xia replied one by one and said hello to them.
Someone didn't speak again.
Someone reminded her that Lin Cheng had been unstable recently, and asked her to pay more attention to safety.
Two other ladies directly told Wen Xia that if they were afraid, they could go over and live with them.
Wen Xia politely declined.
She wondered if she should re-register for a new number.
With Master's number, it may be easier to take orders and do business, but too many people pay attention to this number.
Fortunately, this time they are all seniors with good conduct.
If only the enemies who were hiding in the shadows were also lurking in the forums and staring at her all the time......
Let's get a new number.
Wen Xia was thinking about it when the phone on the table rang again.
It was Lozon who called.
But after Wen Xia connected, it was Luo Song's mother who spoke.
"Master, I'm Luo Song's mother Liu Hui, please save my son!"
"Don't worry, tell me what's wrong with Luo Song?"
It turned out that after Song He and Luo Song went home, they told their families what happened on the mountain.
Both families were taken aback.
Especially the Luo family, the family has not been smooth for several months.
The company's business, family health, none of them went well.
Originally, everyone thought it was just a coincidence.
It's just that the past few months have been unlucky, and these bad things have collided together.
Because they didn't want Luo Song to worry, everyone didn't tell him.
I didn't think that Luo Song almost lost his life today, but fortunately he met a master.
The Luo family thought that the whole family would go to the temple tomorrow to worship and find the master again.
Someone is trying to harm them.
Or is their family really so moldy this year!
It's just that early the next morning, the whole family got up, and Luo Song was still sleeping.
It wasn't until Liu Hui saw that the time was not early and went upstairs to call her son, only to find that Luo Song was having a high fever and couldn't wake up.
And he has a distinct black handprint on his shoulder.
The family rushed Luo Song to the hospital in a panic.
I checked everything that could be checked, and the experts came one after another.
Nothing was detected.
But Luo Song is visibly weaker and weaker.
Liu Hui panicked.
Fortunately, I remembered that Luo Song said that when he sent the master home, he asked the master for his mobile phone number.
The family panicked and called Wen Xia for help.
Wen Xia asked for the location and rushed to the hospital as quickly as possible.
It was Song He who was waiting for her downstairs.
"I also just arrived, uncle, they don't know you, so I came down and waited."
Song He explained briefly.
"He had a black handprint on his shoulder, and when I got closer, I could smell a strange stench."
"I don't know how to describe it."
"It stinks anyway, but it smells of spice."
While talking, the two of them also arrived at Luo Song's hospital room.
Wen Xia's nose is more sensitive than Song He, and she smells it as soon as she gets out of the elevator.
Sure enough, it was exactly the same smell she had smelled in the mountains.
"Auntie, this is Master Wen."
The people in the room were amazed by Wen Xia's youth and beauty.
But now they have nothing to do, and they put all their hopes on Wen Xia.
Liu Hui quickly stood up.
"Master, look at my son."
Wen Xia only found out at a glance that Luo Song was definitely being targeted.
When she saw Luo Song yesterday, he was still rich and noble.
As long as he doesn't fight with his brother for the family property, his future life will not be too bad.
But today, Luo Song was wrapped in death.
made Wen Xia almost unable to see others clearly.
