Chapter 12: Soul Attraction
Waiting always makes people feel very difficult, and under all kinds of boredom, Qi Mingfei began to tell us about the results of his investigation.
When the fire caught fire in '81, this building was the teaching building of the Department of Finance.
But it has been nearly 25 years now, and many things have been impossible to verify for a long time.
There is no record of this fire in the school records, and there is no record of this fire in the records of the Department of Finance, what the cause of the fire was, how large the area of the fire was, and how many casualties were recorded.
Qi Mingfei could only guess from some records of the restoration work afterwards that the fire at that time should have been not small.
After the restoration in the second half of '84, until it was completely emptied in '01, this school building was used as a teaching building and office building of the Department of Foreign Languages, and there were no haunted legends for more than ten years, and the room where we are now has been used as the office of the Thai language department, and there have been no anecdotes.
In a short period of time, Qi Mingfei had no way to find out when and because of the rumors of the haunting, but the official explanation given by the school was that the main structure of the house was damaged to a certain extent in the fire, and there were certain safety hazards, so it was not suitable for continued use as a teaching building or dormitory building.
At that time, the school planned to clear the land to build a laboratory building, but because the funds have not been secured, this matter has been put on hold.
Unexpectedly, rumors of the haunting of the house suddenly spread.
The most famous ghost story about this house is that several girls invite the Saucer Fairy in this room, and they invite evil ghosts, and finally two die and one goes crazy. This is also the version that Lu Xiaoling has heard, but Qi Mingfei has checked the records of the student department, and there is no evidence that can support this statement.
"I've tracked down a lot of campus ghost stories before." Qi Mingfei said to us. "A lot of ghost stories are actually born in a dormitory meeting or in the process of communication between seniors and juniors. Everyone thinks that something weird must be going on in a historic school, and if not, it seems that something is missing. As a result, out of curiosity and mischief, many people will start to look for 'probable' haunted places in the school, and relocate some of the ghost stories they have heard to tell others as legends. If you have time to investigate, you will find that many schools have the same ghost stories, women mopping the floor in the middle of the night, stairs without end, mirrors at the top of stairs, closed study halls, a story can be reshaped in many schools' 'five forbidden places', "seven forbidden places" and other legends, some stories are even so funny that there is no address in the story at all. ”
"But ghosts do exist." I interrupted him.
"I've dealt with some things with my uncle, and the people involved are generally not willing to make things public, especially if someone has died." Lu Xiaoling also said. "The simplest truth, if a house is haunted, then the house will depreciate like crazy, will the homeowner say such a thing?"
"I still have reservations." Qi Mingfei said. "If we're lucky, maybe one of us will be convinced by it tonight."
Before I knew it, it was more than eleven o'clock, I took off the talisman and put it on Qi Mingfei, he carefully checked the two cameras, turned them on, adjusted them to the night shooting mode, and then went downstairs.
"I'll stay at the gate." He said to us. "If you shout, I'll run up right away."
Lu Xiaoling and I continued to sit in the room, in order not to be noticeable, we didn't even light candles, and the street lamp outside was the only light source, but after getting used to it, there was actually nothing wrong with seeing the surroundings clearly.
I had already opened the Eye of Heaven, and there was only a faint ghost aura around me, which should have been left from last night.
After sitting for a while, I couldn't help but want to make some noise. So I asked in a low voice, "Do you think it's going to come out?" ”
"Shh Lu Xiaoling glared at me.
The time soon reached twelve o'clock, but nothing happened, and Lu Xiaoling suddenly stood up, which startled me.
"Help me watch the dots, I'm going to get up the altar." She said to me as she began to light the candles.
To be honest, seeing a girl like her doing those things, there is a strange sense of disobedience, whether it is Yu Bu or the handprints made by her, it doesn't look like it's a practice, but like a dance.
Three talismans were burned, but nothing happened.
"There's no reason~" Lu Xiaoling said puzzled.
"Is there any other way?"
"Yes!" She looked at me and pulled out a piece of paper from her bag, as well as a pen. "Let's ask for a pen fairy."
"This ...... It's kind of funny, right? "I instinctively resisted." The Heavenly Master doesn't use the normal way to search for souls and detain souls, and invites pen immortals like ordinary people? ”
"What can I do if she doesn't come out?" Lu Xiaoling said angrily. "You wouldn't dare, would you?"
"Joke!" I immediately said dismissively.
Lu Xiaoling knelt in the middle of the floor, put the piece of paper between us, held the bottom of the pen with her right hand, and then looked at me, I could only stretch out my hand.
We staggered our fingers to hold the pen and let it hang over the paper.
Lu Xiaoling began to chant something silently, her deep voice seemed to have some kind of hypnotic power in the dark, and her hanging hands gradually began to get tired.
Before I knew it, there was a sudden rush of cold air, and the candlelight dimmed to the extreme, and then began to turn green.
A bloody hand blistered with blood grabbed the lower end of the pen at some point.
"Are you here?" Lu Xiaoling asked.
A faint force began to act on the pen, and I couldn't help but squint my eyes to look at the owner of the hand, whose face was still bloodied and unbearable to look at, but its attention was all on the pen.
A round circle.
"Was that you here last night?" Lu Xiaoling asked.
"Yes"
"Are you the one who seduces Li Li and Liu Xiao's souls?"
"Yes"
"Why are you doing that?"
The pen began to scribble.
"Do you want revenge?"
"Yes"
"If you take revenge, will you hand over the souls of Li Li and Liu Xiao back?"
The pen began to scribble again.
"You don't want to?"
"No"
"You can't do it?"
"Yes"
"Why?" Lu Xiaoling couldn't help but ask again.
The pen scribbled again.
"Their souls are out of your control anymore?" I asked.
"Yes"
"Someone else has taken their souls away?"
"Yes"
Lu Xiaoling and I invariably raised our heads and looked at each other, and I saw deep confusion in her eyes.
"Their souls are still in school?" Lu Xiaoling asked.
"Yes"
"It's the boys who took their souls away?"
"Yes"
"Do you know his identity?"
"Yes"
"What's his last name?"
The pen began to scribble, and the last name was apparently not on the paper.
I saw the wraith's expression start to grow angry, why? Is it because we're all asking about things that have nothing to do with her?
"Your enemy is still teaching at the school?"
"Yes," its expression calmed slightly.
"Are the boys who detained Li Li and Liu Xiao's souls their classmates?" Lu Xiaoling obviously couldn't see it, and was a little puzzled by me suddenly shifting the problem away.
"No," the wraith's face began to contort.
"Is it a classmate from one of their departments?" Lu Xiaoling continued to ask.
The wraith's face lifted, its mouth as if it had been torn open, and its bloody mouth slowly opened and stretched out towards her.
The pen stopped moving, so Lu Xiaoling was puzzled.
"What's the last name of the person who killed you?" I asked hurriedly.
But this didn't seem to have any effect on the resentful spirit, it opened its mouth suddenly, and I didn't hesitate anymore, and dragged Lu Xiaoling over from its side.
"What are you doing?" Lu Xiaoling was caught off guard and fell.
"It's starting to get out of hand!" I said to her loudly.
The temperature suddenly rose, the flames suddenly surrounded us, Lu Xiaoling's long hair began to wither and curl yellow, she pushed me away and took out a few charms from her pocket.
"Where is she?" She asked aloud.
There was fire everywhere, and nothing could be seen clearly.
In the next moment, I saw that resentful spirit pounce on Lu Xiaoling from the ceiling!
"Overhead!"
