Chapter 234: Investigating the Past (4)
It was a pair of red wedding shoes, diving deep into the earth. There was also blood on the upper and the edges were damaged. It was full of evil energy, but there was no evil spirit in sight.
In this way, it seems that the loud sound must have come from these shoes.
Xie Qian didn't dare to act rashly, beckoned to Cheng Yan, and said in a low voice: "Do you guys be particularly good at such things as exorcism and exorcism?" ”
"I'm a monk, not a mage." Cheng Yan replied with a gloomy face.
It's all mortals who practice spells, where do they come from so much.
Xie Qian thought in his heart, but suddenly remembered that he had been asked like this before. At that time, when she was still an inner disciple of Hanhai Cangming, she went to Qizhou City to catch ghosts, and was surrounded by a group of mortals to ask questions. Some of them even want them to help pray for rain or something.
This is a complete misunderstanding.
Monks and mages can be said to be two completely different professions, although they can both exorcise demons and demons, but the methods used are completely different. Moreover, many mages in the mortal world are cheating money, and they don't have much power at all.
Therefore, the monk actually looked down on these mages and hated to be confused.
Xie Qian knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he could only squeeze out a smile and say, "Then Senior Brother Sanren, what is this shoe manipulated?" ”
"This Xie Qian should not be manipulated by evil spirits, but by resentment." Cheng Yan analyzed.
There is a slight difference between the manipulation of evil spirits and resentment. Because resentment is nothing more than the repetition of unfinished things in life, and at most it is scary. If the resentment subsides, then everything will disappear.
But the evil spirits are different, they devour mortals, and the resentment in their hearts is even stronger. If they accidentally touch something they once resented, they may even lose their lives.
If their resentment disappears, they will be directly dissipated, and they will never be able to live again.
Xie Qian stared at Xie Qian, held his chin and speculated: "In this way, this is a female evil spirit, the kind that still wants to be married." ”
"Not necessarily." Cheng Yan denied it, and listed several possibilities for her.
There may be someone who liked the hostess of the shoes, but was let down. On the day of the hostess's wedding, watching the sedan chair pass in front of her, she jumped directly into the nearby lake and committed suicide with dissatisfaction. His heart was full of resentment, so he transformed his form into the shape of a shoe.
Or maybe the hostess and a certain son are in love, and the two are separated for some reason not long after they get married. When Childe died, he held these shoes. The resentment in his heart settled into the shoes, and finally became the current appearance.
Xie Qian's forehead was full of beads of sweat After listening to these narratives, on the one hand, he sighed that real life was more exciting than the story, and on the other hand, he also admired Cheng Yan's ability to make up stories.
While thinking, there was a faint cry. Xie Qian frowned and looked around for a sound, and finally fixed his gaze on his shoes.
Unexpectedly, there were water marks around this shoe, and it was still trembling slightly. She was shocked and didn't know how to react, after all, she didn't know that the shoes could actually cry!
Xie Qian seemed to be very frightened by this phenomenon, and subconsciously took a step back and hid behind Cheng Yan.
He glanced at Xie Qian and said expressionlessly, "I didn't expect you to be afraid of this." ”
The monks of the Immortal Sect have always seen this strange phenomenon a lot. Besides, Xie Qian is the little sect master of the Xianmen, so it stands to reason that he should be even more surprised by this kind of thing.
Xie Qian scratched his head embarrassedly and explained: "I'm afraid that this thing is in my bones, and I can't control it at all." ”
Her spirit is special, and she can see things that others can't see from birth. When she was five or six years old, she wandered outside, and she would cry when she saw those strange ghosts.
Although those ghosts didn't hurt people, and occasionally popped out to scare her, Xie Qian was deeply afraid. Sometimes she encounters bad ghosts, and even throws her things out to play pranks.
After becoming a monk, Xie Qian often went out with others to be artificial. She grew accustomed to catching ghosts and purifying evil spirits, but in her bones she was terrified of such invisible things.
Cheng Yan looked at her thoughtfully and comforted: "It is indeed a ghost, but its strength is very low, and it is not your opponent." ”
Hearing this, Xie Qian breathed a sigh of relief. She cautiously looked at the shoes and saw that the tears were not from the shoes, but from them. That is, it wasn't the shoes that were crying, but something was wearing the shoes, but she couldn't see them.
She was puzzled, and turned her head to look at Cheng Yan with a pleading gaze.
Cheng Yan conjured up a psychic talisman and stuck it on her back, and in an instant she saw the resentment on her shoes. It had become a physical entity, a woman in a red wedding gown, with her head bowed and her shoulders trembling and crying.
"Why can't I see her?" Xie Qian was full of questions.
Cheng Yan explained expressionlessly: "Your Inner Yuan Jin Dan should not be able to function, so after entering the miasma, you will not be able to see this resentful entity for the time being. ”
Her Inner Yuan Jin Dan was wrapped in an enchantment, so she naturally couldn't turn it.
For the loss of Chengyan to put a spiritual talisman on herself, she immediately said sincerely: "Thank you." ”
Cheng Yan didn't answer, but circled around the woman in red to observe, and then asked, "Who are you and why are you crying here?" ”
The woman only looked down and wiped her tears, and there was no appearance of attacking at all. Hearing Cheng Yan's question, she sniffed and said, "I, my name is Qiao Niang, and I am the personal maid of Miss Jia's family in Linzi business. But ......"
At this point, she raised her eyes, and those that were so clear that they didn't look like ghosts at all. She pursed her lips and hesitated slightly, "I can't find a home now, and I can't get out of here." ”
Since the resentment is in these shoes, that is to say, Qiao Niang's body is in this wood, either an accident or a murder.
Xie Qian frowned, approached Qiao Niang, and asked, "How did you get killed?" ”
Qiao Niang lowered her head again, rubbed the red wedding dress on her body with her fingers, and whispered: "I really met gangsters on the way to get married." "When the family send-off team entered here, they encountered mountain bandits.
Similar to what she had speculated, Xie Qian continued: "Do you remember where your home used to be? ”
Qiao Niang nodded and shook her head, and finally sighed and said, "I remember that it should be in the Linzi generation." ”
It's Linzi again.
Xie Qian glanced at Cheng Yan, then stretched out his hand to test Qiao Niang's body, and his hand passed through easily. In other words, Qiao Niang has nothing to do with the puppet incident.
She thought that since she didn't have much to do with her, she didn't care. She was about to leave, but she heard Qiao Niang behind her choke up: "I was still a little bit away from seeing my father-in-law, but I didn't expect that in the end, heaven and man were separated ......."
It's a pity indeed.
Xie Qian sighed in his heart.
Qiao Niang continued to muttered to herself: "Later, I heard that he disappeared into the nameless lake, and I really wanted to see him again. ”
Nameless Lake, disappearing?
Xie Qian stopped, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Although she didn't think it would be such a coincidence, she always felt that Qiao Niang and King Ji might have some kind of connection.
