The human heart is far more terrible than a monster.

Bai Li thought of this, but the man who was still sitting on the roof and appealing about the past suddenly pounced like a cat. Seeing that a shadow was about to fall, Bai Li pulled out two runes while closing his eyes sideways. The rune paper burned with the wind, and the originally faint flame turned into a fire snake and restrained him the moment the shopkeeper Han pounced.

Shopkeeper Han struggled for a while, followed by a painful roar from his chest. At the same time that Bai Li covered his ears with his hands, Shopkeeper Han fell from a height with a rope composed of talisman fire.

Hearing the sound of "bang", those lepers also seemed to come back to their senses, and they all circled around the shopkeeper Han.

"Definitely!" Bai Ze sprinkled it casually, and the yellow rune paper stuck to those lepers one after another, and those people all stood still.

Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to touch the back of his head.

"Li'er, don't move!"

"What's wrong?" Bai Li looked up at Bai Ze: "I don't know if I used too much force just now, how do I feel that my back hurts a little." ”

"Don't move!" Bai Ze walked over and carefully pulled a black needle from between her hair.

The needle is very thin and thin, and if you don't identify it carefully, you will mistakenly think that the other person has just pulled a hair down.

"What is this?" Bai Li pressed the hair socket, and there was still some uncomfortable feeling in the place where the needle had just been removed.

"This should be the Soul Separation Needle!" Bai Ze glanced at the shopkeeper of Chao Han: "I can't imagine that there are still people in this world who use this kind of thing." ”

"What the hell is this Soul Separation Needle? How does it end up on the back of my head? Bai Li shook his neck: "Will there be any sequelae left after being pierced by this thing?" ”

"Wait a minute, I'll ask him first." Bai Ze pinched the Soul Separation Needle and fell to the shopkeeper Han. After about a sentence or two, he returned to the roof, pinched the soul and said to Bai Li, "He didn't do it." ”

"Who could that be?" Bai Li asked, staring at the pitch-black needle in Bai Ze's hand. "When I saw this needle, I understood what it means to be as thin as a cow's hair."

"Let me see your wounds." Bai Ze didn't care whether Bai Li wanted to or not, he directly pulled her hair, "Judging from the wound, this soul separation needle is indeed not the work of Shopkeeper Han, it should have been pierced before you arrived in Huaxi Town." ”

"How is this possible! With such a long needle, no matter how thin it is, it will always feel like it is pierced in the head. Not to mention anything else, with a needle stuck in the back of the head, it will give you a headache when you sleep. But I didn't feel it at all. ”

"Although this soul separation needle has a needle in its name, it actually has nothing to do with the needle, it looks like a needle but is not a needle, but a fox hair plucked from the heart of the nine-tailed fox in Qingqiu."

"Fox fur?" Bai Li pointed to the soul separation needle: "This thing doesn't look like fox fur no matter how you look at it?" I've never seen a real fox, but I've seen a weasel, and the two things should be similar in appearance. At most, foxes are better-looking, and weasels are ugly. ”

"If it's just fox fur, it can't be called a soul separation needle. If you want to make a soul separation needle, in addition to plucking the hairs from the heart of the nine-tailed fox, you also need to soak these hairs in a special medicinal solution, and after soaking for 7749 days, you can pick out one or two of the fox hairs in a pinch of fox hair. This soul separation needle is extremely rare, and I saw it when I was reading those folk allusions, but I never thought that there was such a thing in this world. ”

"Having said all that, what exactly is this Soul Separation Needle for?"

"The Soul Separation Needle, as the name suggests, is the separation of the soul from the body. According to legend, this soul separation needle was developed by a person who was about to ascend to the Tao and read hundreds of ancient medical classics in order to save his beloved woman. Later generations called this method the Soul Separation Technique or the Soul Exchange Technique."

"You mean, someone—" Bai Li touched the back of his head and stopped talking.

She's not really Baili, she knows that. I thought that Lord Yama saw her pitiful, so she was reincarnated and reincarnated in the body of a poor girl. Now it looks like someone did it on purpose...... It's just that how did that person know that she borrowed Bai Li's body?

Bai Li's mind buzzed, and she quickly grabbed Bai Ze's hand and said eagerly.

"Hurry up and help me see, is there only such a soul separation needle on my head?"

"Only one."

"What about wounds? Is it one or two? ”

"Two places." Bai Ze said: "I'm also very strange, this is obviously only one soul separation needle, why are there two wounds." Could it be that the person who administers the needle is not good at medicine? ”

"It's not that the medical skills are not perfect, but that there is a mistake." Bai Li sighed lightly and sat down on the spot. "Feelings, I'm a leak."

"Li'er, are you alright?" Bai Ze squatted down: "Don't worry, with me, no one will be able to calculate you in the future." ”

"It's okay, I'm fine, I just think...... I think this thing is so mysterious. ”

"Fortune teller, I don't understand at all, if this soul separation needle is really someone deliberately stabbed in the back of Bai Li's head. So, what is the purpose of that person? Do you want Bai Li's skinny, dry and unattractive body, or do you want her soul? ”

"Of course it is—" Bai Li wanted to respond to Gao Zhan's question, but she herself hesitated halfway through the words: "Because of what Bai Ze said just now, we will subconsciously think that this person who uses the Soul Separation Needle wants to take my body, but what if he doesn't want a body, but the soul of a pure girl?" I have two wounds on my head, indicating that this person has used the Soul Separation Needle twice. After this first use, he thought he had failed, so he sneaked up and came a second time. This time, in terms of results, he succeeded, but formally, he failed. As for why this Soul Separation Needle is still on my head, it should be that he thinks that he has succeeded, and he doesn't need this Soul Separation Needle anymore. ”

"And then?" Gao Zhan leaned over and asked.

"And then—" Bai Li patted his cheeks and stood up: "This is definitely a big case, and when you finish solving the leprosy patients in Liyang City, you have to hurry back to Huaxi Town and tell Lord Xin." ”

"It's natural, no matter what that person is up to, he's definitely a wicked person." Gao Zhan clenched the knife in his hand, but his eyes fell on Bai Li: "No wonder I think you are weird every time I meet you, especially your temperament, which always changes and doesn't look like a person." ”

"Not like a person?" Bai Li blinked and looked at Bai Ze: "Is what he said true?" ”

Bai Ze nodded: "There is indeed a difference, the Li'er I first met was a very straightforward character. But these days...... Li'er, you seem to have become no different from a normal little girl. You're going to be scared, you're going to be worried, and you're going to be very kind. The only thing that hasn't changed is your cooking skills, but lately, you haven't cooked much for us. ”
