Chapter 62: Back to the Old Land
I held up my flashlight and shone it at one of the filing cabinets: "Look at that! β
Ye Huan broke off a piece of wood from the corner of the table, and bounced it towards the cabinet door with his fingers.
There was a slight knock on the iron door of the filing cabinet, and a corpse lay in the cabinet, the face of which was the same old man who had brought us in.
I looked at the corpse and said, "The other party must have called the police, they want to use official means against us." β
Shi Qi was shocked: "Then what should I do?" Otherwise, we will withdraw. β
I laughed and said, "Why are we leaving?" The show hasn't started yet! β
I raised my hand and threw out a little yellow spring sand, and it took less than two minutes to digest the corpse on the ground.
"When someone comes in, no one makes a sound, and they all fool them out." I took out the spirit talisman and pasted it on Ye Huan and Shi Qi's bodies, and pinched the magic trick with my hand and said: "Split the earth and divide yin and yang, and hide it in front of the eyes of a thousand armies." The gods are invisible, and the demons are immeasurable. Hiddenβ"
This time, instead of using "Exploring Horses", I used my Yuan family's secret technique "Splitting the Earth Yin and Yang", and forcibly opened up a small space between the yin and yang barriers, allowing the three of us to hide in it.
Many people feel that the yin-yang barrier is easy to break, but in fact, the yin-yang barrier is as thick as a city wall, and the psychic warlock invites ghosts from the underworld, not to break the yin-yang barrier, but to temporarily bring them out from the Huangquan Road where the ghosts normally enter and exit the underworld.
The three of us are now standing in the middle of the underworld and the yang world, and the living can't see us, and the dead don't try to find us.
"Splitting the Earth Yin and Yang" is the player's means of escaping, except for my father and the old thief, no one knows the mystery of this secret technique.
Not long after we hid, a police officer broke down the door, but they found nothing but three flashlights on the table and some old newspapers.
Those men walked back and forth three times in front of the three of us before leading the team away.
As soon as the police-inspector left, I saw two more people, one tall and one short, in the archive room, and the tall one shook around the room: "People, why are they gone, I saw them come in with my own eyes, and there was no warning from the nearby spirit runes, these people didn't go out!" β
The short man said in a deep voice: "You wait for me to summon the ghost out to help take a look!" β
A red lantern was lit between the short man's words, and after a while, I felt a fluctuation in all directions at the same time, more than a dozen miserable white arms stretched out from the cabinet in the archive room, the ceiling, and the ground one after another, and the figures also poked out their heads and faces from the wall and the ground, and even someone had squatted on the filing cabinet, looking condescendingly at the red light.
People always think that ghosts are extremely far away from them, but in fact they are always wandering around people, even only a few inches away from them.
Archives need to be protected from light, and the interior of the archives room generally does not open windows facing east and west, and the indoor light is insufficient, and the yin air is heavy. Those old archives have carried too many people's past and obsessions, and it is very easy to attract ghosts.
When you're looking at a file, someone might be by your side to look at the file with you.
The short man pressed the red light and said, "Where did the three people who came in just now?" β
One of the ghosts replied, "Didn't the master tell us all to stay away from the archives?" None of us dared to come! The three of them entered the archives and never went out. β
The short man first glared at the tall man, and then asked, "Have those three people cast spells here?" β
The ghost replied, "I thought someone had cast a spell just now, but it was gone in a flash." β
"Someone cast a spell?" The short man thought for a while, then took out the newspaper on the table, flipped through it quickly, pointed to one of the newspapers and said, "Lao Liu, you said that the things in this newspaper will not come true, right?" β
The tall man also snorted: "You mean, those people are really back like the boss said?" Dragged all three of them away? β
"No...... It's hard to say! The short man said, "You hurry up and contact the leader, let's go to the water plant first." β
As soon as the two of them left, we walked out of the yin and yang barrier and quietly followed behind the two of them.
Shi Qi sat in the car and asked in a low voice, "How did they get fooled?" β
I replied as I drove, "Jinyi is waiting to come to you, which is not very reasonable in itself. β
"Since the Thirteen Ghost Sect has determined that your grandfather handled the wrong case back then, why do they still give you a chance? Is it because they are at odds within? I don't think so. β
"Where do the Jianghu people get so much sense of justice? I think the reason why the Thirteen Ghost Sects found you is probably because of what happened back then? β
"As it turns out, I guessed right!"
Shi Qi thought for a while and said, "You mean, the case back then was actually a three-party competition, the Thirteen Ghost Gates, my grandfather, and the real murderer?" β
"Hmm!" I nodded and said, "After your grandfather pacified the Thirteen Ghost Gates, there was no disappearance in Changchun City. From this point of view, it is very likely that your grandfather wiped out the real murderer and the people of the Thirteen Ghost Sects back then. β
"In the eyes of the current high-level leaders of the Ghost Gate, it doesn't matter whether the real murderer joined forces with the people of the Thirteen Ghost Sect to commit the crime, or whether your grandfather really killed the Ghost Gate Warlock by mistake. It is important that they know the real purpose of the real murderer back then. β
"They used your grandfather's reputation as a threat to let you investigate the case, just to let you find out the murderer back then."
I paused here and said, "This is my judgment based on the clues I have so far, as for right and wrong, I still need to verify it before I know." β
As we were talking, we saw two people in front of us driving into a water plant.
I whispered: "According to the records in Shi Lao's notes, this place was originally called Yangjia Village, and it was also the first place where the disappearance occurred. β
"There is the starting point of the whole case, and if you want to trace the origin, you must go back to Yangjia Village."
I roughly estimated when the two men would leave, and as I pulled over to the side of the road and slipped into the waterworks, I saw a red light hanging high above.
The lights near the lantern reflected a strange blood red, and it looked like someone had smeared the space with blood.
I gestured to Ye Huan and asked him to be optimistic about Shi Qi, and I touched the red light.
The two warlocks' magic weapons landed not far from the red light, but the two warlocks were nowhere to be found.
I took a few tentative steps forward, only to see a large cistern not far from the red light, and strangely enough, the light was only close to the edge of the cistern, as if it had been cut off alive, and it could not reach the water.
As I tentatively approached the edge of the pool, I heard the sound of footsteps behind me, and my body tensed instantly.
