Chapter 208: The Yin Soul Pact
Yu Xia said it so clearly, most of the people present were Xuanshi who traveled from south to north, and there was nothing else they didn't understand.
What else could this kind of coldness be besides the Shadow?
It's just that even if it's a ghost, how can it be related to Gu Dabao again?
Everyone pressed the doubts in their hearts, no one bothered, and listened patiently to Yu Xia's next words.
"Before Xu Hao's death, we found the Mantuo Gu, but how the murderer dragged Xu Hao into the illusion through the Mantuo Gu, we still don't know how to understand."
Mo Daochang nodded, Chen Dao had also mentioned this matter to him before, and the most puzzling thing about this case was that without being discovered, or even without going out of Dengyun Tower, how to blow the music that attracted Gu poison near Xu Hao and weave it into an illusion.
This is clearly an unsolvable problem.
Yu Xia glanced at Gu Dabao, his face was full of panic at this time, and he looked a little helpless.
Yu Xia's heart throbbed for no reason, but he still hardened his heart, turned his head away from him, and his voice was still extremely calm.
"I was in the illusion and let Ah Nan get on me, and then I understood how the illusion that killed Xu Hao was urged."
"One body and two souls, the dialogue between souls and souls is carried out in the body, so naturally it will not disturb others. When Xu Hao was defenseless in his sleep, the Yin Soul, who had long remembered the music that had been triggered, broke through the barrier of Xu Hao's talisman and entered his body. ”
"That music was played by the Yin Soul in Xu Hao's mind, and its effect was even worse than playing it nearby. Xu Hao had no power to parry, and was dragged into the illusion. ”
"And as a price, after completing the task, the yin spirit also dissipated, and lost the possibility of reincarnating as a human, which is the origin of the cool air in the room."
"Your guess sounds reasonable, but since it's the Yin Soul that is causing trouble, what does it have to do with Gu Dabao?"
Jiang Lingfan's face was full of puzzlement, Yu Xia's explanation of the Gu Poison Illusion Realm did make sense, but even if it was a ghost, how could the real murderer be Gu Dabao? It is much more reasonable to say that it is a ghost revenge than to say that Gu Dabao is a murderer, right?
Yu Xia heard Jiang Lingfan's question, turned his head to him and said, "Do you remember the confetti on Xu Hao's middle coat?" ”
Jiang Lingfan nodded, the confetti was too small, and the smell was too miscellaneous to distinguish the origin, so now it was also put away in a wooden box by Chen Dao, and no further investigation was done against it.
"Although the confetti is small, it can also be seen that it is white, and the texture is relatively light."
Jiang Lingfan listened to Yu Xia's words and agreed, "That's true. ”
"I thought it was rice paper, but then I realized that it wasn't rice paper at all, but the scraps on the paper clothes."
Paper clothing?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, could it be the winter clothes that were sent to every household in October to burn the dead souls?
Jiang Lingfan recalled the appearance of the confetti, and he felt a little familiar at that time, saying that it was rice paper, but the surface of the paper was much smoother than ordinary rice paper, and it did not absorb water.
That's right! Isn't that the white winter clothes that every family burns for the dead!
It's just that the paper clothes burned by the October Dynasty for the dead, how could they appear on Xu Hao's middle clothes?
Mo Daochang had calculated before, the real murderer was the Xuanshi of Dengyun Tower!
Jiang Lingfan listened to Yu Xia with a stomach full of questions:
"When the Xuanshi Conference opened, it was just in time for the day of sending winter clothes, and most of the Xuanshi who participated in the meeting came from other places, and there were very few who would send dark clothes to the ghosts."
When Yu Xia said this, Gu Dabao could no longer stand, and his whole person collapsed to the ground.
There is nothing that others don't understand when they look at him, but now the evidence is not enough, and no one has debunked it.
"Coincidentally, on a whim, I went to the north of the city the night before the opening meeting to deliver the ghost clothes to the homeless spirits, and there, I happened to meet a person who also went to deliver the clothes at night."
Everyone already had a guess in their hearts, and their eyes fell on Gu Dabao, and Yu Xia's voice also sounded at this time.
"That person is Gu Dabao."
Speaking of this, Yu Xia finally couldn't help but look at Gu Dabao.
At the beginning, she intersected with Gu Dabao, mostly because of the gift of dark clothes.
At the beginning, Gu Dabao's compassion for the yin soul and the compassion for the suffering and frozen people touched her heart very much.
She is convinced that this is a person with a good heart.
Who would have thought that such a person would hide so deeply, hide from everyone, and kill Xu Hao with extremely strange and unpredictable means.
"However, even if it was the Yin Soul in the Dark Clothes who killed Xu Hao, it doesn't mean that it has something to do with Gu Dabao, right?" Some people questioned it loudly.
Jiang Lingfan also nodded, the evidence that Yu Xia has taken out now is indeed true, but it is far from enough to prove that the real culprit is Gu Dabao.
Yu Xia knew what they were questioning, and sighed again.
"Do you remember that on the night you advanced, the four of us were about to eat, and Gu Dabao came back from outside?"
As soon as Yu Xia mentioned this, Jiang Lingfan immediately thought about it.
"Yes, there is indeed that, at that time I was still wondering, in the middle of the night, how could he come back from outside, as soon as he entered the door, I felt a cool air from him from afar, I was really not afraid of the cold......"
Speaking of this, Jiang Lingfan suddenly stopped and looked at Gu Dabao in surprise.
If he remembered correctly, the first thing Gu Dabao did when he entered the door was to pour hot water to warm his hands, they didn't keep staring at the two of them out of trust in Yu Xia at that time, but Gu Dabao's action of warming his hands was for him to remember.
As a cultivator with cultivation, no matter how deep and heavy he is, he has vitality to protect his body, so he won't be afraid of being cold like that, right?
Unless......
Jiang Lingfan seemed to think of something, "I saw a story in "Silkworm Travel" before, saying that living people can make a deal with the Yin Soul and make a contract with the Yin Spirit. After the contract is formed, the breath of the yin soul and the living person will be figured out, and the yin energy will be constricted and will not be noticed, and after the contract is completed, the living person needs to dissolve the contract where the virtual contract is formed. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Lingfan glanced at Gu Dabao, "Although the ghost that killed Xu Hao has dissipated, the contract has been proven by the Heavenly Dao, and since it has been concluded, it must be unraveled." At the time of dissolution, it is also the time to cut off the connection between the yin qi and the breath of the living, and at that moment, the yin qi that has been converging will lose its restraint and spread until it dissipates. ”
This also explains why Gu Dabao was no different before, but the night he came back from outside, it seemed to be very cold.
"No, it's not, it's all just your guess."
Gu Dabao looked dejected, but he couldn't help shaking his head.
"It was just a coincidence that I went out that night, what was the contract with the Yin Spirit, this is just your speculation, and it can't be true."
Jiang Lingfan saw the appearance of Gu Dabao, who had never had a heart or lungs and saw people with a big smiling face, and he was a little unbearable in his heart, but as a protector, he had experienced too many such situations, and his emotions could fluctuate, but his judgment would not be affected.
"It's easy to tell if a living person has a pact with a ghost."
