Chapter 43: The Golden Lotus Necklace
Slowly squatting next to the corpse, I found that the woman's face had been covered with a layer of pale at the moment, and there was no blood. Although the eyeballs in the eye sockets are not as black as Mrs. Yu's, they are covered by a layer of red blood, and their appearance is extremely terrifying.
The most suspicious thing is that on the woman's neck, she also wore a golden lotus necklace that was exactly the same as Mrs. Yu, and under the reflection of the blood and water on the side, there was also a faint golden light, which was the same as what she had seen in the photo before.
Confused, I took the golden lotus necklace off the woman's neck, put it in my pocket, and then used the Xuanyin treasure gourd on my waist to put the woman's soul into it.
Because although the body of the deceased has died, the soul and appearance have not been taken away by the shadows. Therefore, now I can use the way of conjuring spirits to get some clues from this woman's soul.
After successfully putting the woman's soul into the Xuanyin Treasure Gourd, I smiled bitterly, slowly stood up, and walked towards my room through the crowd.
When I got back to my room, I instinctively locked the door and took out a large number of the tools I needed to summon spirits from my luggage.
Sitting cross-legged on the warm carpet and lighting three cold candles and a life-guarding lamp in a certain direction, I silently recited the fixed spell of conjuring spirits in my mind.
Cold candles are a kind of lighting device unique to the underworld. Although they are very similar to candles in the sun, there is an essential difference between them.
Candles in the yang world need to be lit with an open flame, which cannot be burned at all in the dense environment of the underworld. In order to be able to make the underworld as bright as the sun. Thousands of years ago, the ghost lord invented this lighting device called the cold candle.
When lit, it only needs to be illuminated with the collected moonlight to ignite a strange blue and green light.
And this blue-green flame is the ghost fire that we often mention in our daily life.
This blue-green ghost fire can not only be used for lighting, but also to protect the soul of the recently deceased from being damaged by the yang energy of the yang world. Therefore, when summoning spirits, cold candles are one of the necessary utensils. As for the life lamp, its function is similar to that of a cold candle, and it is also to protect the soul from damage.
When the spell of the soul conjuring was finished, the Xuanyin Treasure Gourd beside me seemed to be pulled by an external force, floating violently, and releasing the soul of the woman who had just been collected in the void.
Slowly opening her blood-soaked eyes, the woman's soul looked at the environment in front of her slightly, and then a puzzled expression immediately hit her face, and asked in a low voice, "I, why am I here?" ”
"I'm the one who brought you here, I'm sorry, and I'm asking for your permission." I bowed my hand to the soul of the woman in front of me, and after whispering to her apologetically, I asked, "Girl, can I ask you a few questions." ”
"Say it." Although the expression of the woman's soul was a little displeased at this moment, seeing that I was so polite and respectful, she reluctantly agreed to my inquiry.
"Did you encounter any strange things before you died, or did you see any strange people?" Looking up and down at the female ghost in front of me, I found that her body was not as resentful as the white-haired female ghost I had seen before, and I thought that she should have died mysteriously unconsciously.
"Before I died, nothing strange happened! But while I was eating, I seemed to see a silver-haired woman, and after the woman had put a necklace on my table, she left, and I wanted to catch up and return the necklace to her, but in a blink of an eye, the silver-haired woman was gone. After recalling the strange situation she encountered during the meal, the woman recounted without reservation.
Hearing this, I took out the golden lotus necklace from my pocket, placed it in front of the woman's soul, and asked, "The necklace you said, but this one?" ”
"That's right, it's the one in your hand, when I saw this necklace, I couldn't help but feel a feeling of love in my mind, and then I put it on my neck with both hands uncontrollably." After seeing the golden lotus necklace in my hand, the woman's soul was suddenly startled, and she hurriedly explained.
"I remember that after wearing this golden lotus necklace, I could clearly feel that some uncomfortable feelings such as dizziness and swelling on my body before disappeared mysteriously, and the whole body became light and fluttering, as if it had become a feather." After listening to the words of the woman's spirit, I was immediately sure that the moment she put on the necklace, she had fallen under the spell of the female ghost.
And the comfort and lightness she felt should have appeared after falling into the fantasy set by the female ghost. As for what she did next, it was most likely driven by illusions.
"After dinner, I took the elevator back to my room on the fourth floor. I only found that a king-sized watermelon appeared in the house at some point. In my joy, I hurriedly took out the portable fruit knife from my travel bag and tried to use it to cut the watermelon. But the moment I took out the knife, I suddenly saw a black centipede lying on my wrist. At this point, the woman's expression became nervous.
"In a panic, I hurriedly slashed at the black centipede on my wrist with a knife, only to see that the moment the knife was swung, streams of red blood flowed out of the knife, and at this moment, those so-called watermelons and centipedes disappeared without a trace." As she spoke, the woman's spirit pointed to her wrist and explained, "I didn't know what to do when I saw the blood gushing out, so I hurriedly rushed to the bathroom and wanted to rinse the blood on my wrist with water." ”
"But as soon as I entered the bathroom, a horrible pale face appeared in the mirror before me, followed by a stumbling under my feet, and falling to the ground, and my bleeding arm fell to the side of the bathtub where I had put the water in preparation for the bath." The words became more and more nervous, and the woman's soul involuntarily covered her arm, and said strangely: "At that time, I was too nervous, and I had lost the ability to instinctively resist, now I think about it, the terrifying face I saw in the mirror at the beginning seemed to be the woman who gave me the golden lotus necklace at that time." ”
"I already have a general understanding of your affairs, thank you for your cooperation, you can go to reincarnation." I thanked the soul of the woman in front of me, and then I chanted a spell with my sword in my hand, sending the woman's soul directly into the underworld.
After everything was done, I once again held the nasturtium bracelet in my hand and used a special way to feel the environment inside the nasturtium necklace. I only found that at this moment, there was nothing else in the necklace except for a residual yin qi, and as for the kind of yin qi that can make people hallucinate, I am afraid that it was exhausted long ago when the woman went crazy.
With this doubt, I walked out of the room and found Boss Sun, wanting to learn more about this golden necklace with him.
This is an afternoon. When I dragged my tired body out of Boss Sun's office, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
The only useful piece of information I could get from him that afternoon was the golden lotus necklace, which had been a special gift for the ski competitions held at their ski resort, and it is said that there were fifteen of them at that time, and it is no longer known to whom they were distributed.
After eating some casual meals in the restaurant, I boarded the elevator to the tenth floor with tired steps. Since we came during the peak ski season, many of the rooms were already booked.
Therefore, a group of five of us was arranged in a room on the tenth floor, although the floor is quite high, but in my opinion, this height is just right, not high or low, and you can see the snow-capped mountain scenery not far away.
I was thinking of going back to my room and resting for the night, not thinking about the deceased, but not long after I closed my eyes, my phone rang at an extremely inopportune time.
Reluctantly connected the phone, only to hear Ke Meng's sweet voice on the other end of the phone: "Ouyang, please trouble you!" The elevator maintenance of the hotel, it is now nearly ten o'clock, the corridor is so dark, we two girls dare not go, you come down to pick us up. ”
Because there was a human death case in the hotel today, both of them couldn't help but associate darkness and fear at this moment.
Although I was a little reluctant to move at the moment, but the girls had already put it forward, and if I objected, it would be so ungentlemanly, so I smiled bitterly and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, you guys wait there, I'll go down soon." ”
At the same time, Ke Meng and Su Yun were holding hands and observing in the dark corridor. At this moment, they are also very puzzled, and the elevator cannot be used for maintenance. But the voice-activated lights on weekdays are actually broken today, as if someone specially arranged them.
Soon, my figure appeared in front of the two of them, and after exchanging a few words of greeting, I led the two of them all the way to the tenth floor.
Along the way, Su Yun kept looking at me, and said to Ke Meng beside him: "Ke Meng, do you feel that Ouyang is not quite right today, there is a smile on the corner of his mouth all the time, and that smile does not seem to be something that a man can show, but more like a woman." ”
Hearing her words, Ke Meng smiled helplessly and replied, "Okay, don't scare yourself anymore." ”
Just as Ke Meng's words fell, her mobile phone suddenly rang, and the caller displayed on the mobile phone turned out to be 'Ouyang Yuqing'.
I answered the phone suspiciously, only to hear me on the other end of the phone at this moment saying, "Ke Meng, I'm downstairs, where are you now?" ”
