Chapter Eight: Memory and Reality
By the time Su Qin woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
After what happened last night, he now has confidence that he can solve the ghost in Li Chen.
But before that, there is one more thing that needs to be done.
Su Qin called Lao Wang and planned to go to Liu Ying's hometown again.
Soon, Lao Wang received a call and rushed over, and the two set off.
After arriving at Liu Ying's hometown village, Su Qin got out of the car.
Recalling Mr. Liu's teaching last night, use the magic power in your body and focus it on your eyes.
Su Qin felt his eyes were a little cold. He took a quick glance, then returned to the car and told Lao Wang to drive to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.
Standing in front of the big locust tree, Lao Wang asked: "What are we doing here? What clues did you find? I asked you along the way and you didn't tell me. What a riddle."
At this time, in Su Qin's eyes, the big locust tree was constantly exuding the aura of ghosts. It was very obvious in his eyes that wisps of black air came out from under the locust tree.
Mr. Liu told Su Qin that as long as he focused his magic power into his eyes, he could see black energy from things that ghosts had come into contact with.
When he stood in the village, he scanned around and saw that the black air was most obvious in the big locust tree.
So he guessed that the bodies of Liu Ying and her daughter were here.
"This should be where the bodies of Liu Ying's mother and daughter are located, but we can't confirm it now. We'll come over again in the evening."
Lao Wang was surprised, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just made a phone call and explained his accommodation and the tools for digging at night.
Su Qin looked at Lao Wang and became more and more curious. Who was Lao Wang? It felt like he didn't need to go to work and had friends and connections everywhere.
On the way back, Su Qin couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked: "Old Wang, what do you do? Why do you feel like you don't have to go to work and can come out at any time? Are you not afraid of being fired? Also,
Where did you get to know so many friends and be so capable?"
Lao Wang didn't know how to answer a series of questions for a while.
After hesitating for a while, Lao Wang replied: "Actually, I run the company where Liu Ying went to find me, but everyone doesn't know that I am actually the boss, so I don't have the right to ask for leave or not."
Then Lao Wang said with some embarrassment: "Also, I am such an adult. I have not been able to do much since I was a child, but I know how to spend money. My family does have the conditions for me to squander it."
"I play outside all day, and I make a lot of friends here and there. To put it bluntly, I am just a rich second generation who relies on my parents."
Seeing Lao Wang's helpless answer, Su Qin couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Damn. It turns out that you are still an invisible rich second generation. I really can't tell if you don't tell me."
"Look at where you live, the car you drive, and the clothes you wear, which one matches your status?" Su Qin said harshly.
"Well, you have to be careful when you go out. After all, you don't reveal your wealth." Lao Wang replied matter-of-factly.
Su Qin nodded with deep understanding. A rich man still wants to hide his wealth, unlike him who doesn't even have any.
After learning about Lao Wang's situation, Su Qin's doubts were lifted.
After arriving at the accommodation, Lao Wang went out, leaving Su Qin alone in the room, probably to have some fun.
Su Qin didn't care. After all, he had to wait until night and had nothing to do here.
He is even more happy and relaxed by himself. He can recall what Mr. Liu taught him last night.
Su Qin recited Liu Ying's name silently in his heart. Before going out, Su Qin asked Liu Ying to come into his ring.
Strangely enough, although Mr. Liu was already in the ring, when Liu Ying entered, the two did not meet, as if they were in different dimensions.
Liu Ying heard Su Qin calling her and appeared in the room the next second.
"Liu Ying, we are going to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village tonight. You have to be mentally prepared. You may be buried under it. Whether it is related to your husband or not, we won't know until we see it."
Liu Ying smiled relievedly, said she could do it, and then returned to the ring.
It is still unknown whether she can remain calm after seeing her own body at night.
…
At around twelve o'clock in the evening, Lao Wang and Su Qin quietly came to the village under the big locust tree.
The two picked up the prepared shovels and dug down where Su Qin saw the most black air.
After digging for a while, Lao Wang discovered that he had shoveled something.
Su Qin cleared away the surrounding soil.
I saw two rotting corpses in the pit, one big and one small.
Su Qin covered his mouth and nose, suppressing his nausea, and went over to take a look. The bodies looked like adults and children, and the clothes they wore were the same as Liu Ying described.
There is no doubt that the bodies are Liu Ying's mother and daughter.
At the same time, Su Qin also discovered that there were many injuries on the body, and even the hands and feet of Liu Ying's body were unnaturally twisted.
Obviously, Liu Ying suffered inhuman torture before her death.
Lao Wang couldn't stand the rotten smell and went outside to take a breath, leaving Su Qin alone in the pit.
Su Qin released Liu Ying and asked her to look at his body and try to remember anything.
After Liu Ying came out, her back was turned to Su Qin, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
Squatting down and touching herself, Liu Ying felt mixed emotions in her heart, pain and sadness came in like a tide.
"Can you remember what happened that day?" Su Qin tried to ask Liu Ying to recall the memory of that day.
"No, I can't remember anything." Liu Ying lowered her head, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She really couldn't remember anything.
What she was even more afraid of was what she would do if the real murderer was her husband, whom she had been with day and night.
Su Qin comforted him with a few words and focused on the black energy in the pit. He wanted to try to absorb the black energy into the ring.
After a while, the black energy was absorbed by the ring.
Just when Su Qin wanted to speak, he suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness.
…
When Su Qin woke up again, he found himself standing in the yard of Liu Ying's hometown.
"How did I get here? Where are Liu Ying and Lao Wang? Where did these two people go?" Su Qin was puzzled.
While he was still wondering, he suddenly heard a sound coming from upstairs at Liu Ying's house.
The sound was very soft, but it was particularly noticeable in the empty and silent yard.
Su Qin, who had been strengthened by magic power all over his body, could vaguely hear the sound of someone walking around on the second floor, which seemed to be accompanied by rapid breathing.
Su Qin did not dare to be careless, so he walked slowly into the stairs on the first floor, and relied on his night vision ability to discredit and walk up.
Su Qin lowered his steps and slowly reached the second floor.
He quietly poked his head out and saw Li Chen bent over, walking back and forth at the door of the room on the second floor.
He even squatted down and peeked into the crack of the door.
Su Qin couldn't help but hold his breath. What was going on? Why was Li Chen here? Did he have any evidence left in the room?
Before he could think about it, Su Qin heard the sound of the door being slowly opened.
Li Chen seemed to be frightened and hurriedly walked towards the stairs. Su Qin had no time to hide.
Their eyes met, but Li Chen seemed not to see Su Qin, and even passed through Su Qin's body and hid at the entrance of the stairs.
Su Qin was stunned. How come Li Chen not only couldn't see him, but also couldn't touch him? Is this a dream?
The next second, Liu Ying walked out of the room.
Su Qin understood that all these were Liu Ying's previous memories. He had entered her memories. No wonder Li Chen couldn't see him.
Standing next to Li Chen, Su Qin could clearly feel the ghostly aura on Li Chen's body, which was hidden in Li Chen's body.
After Li Chen saw Liu Ying coming out, his breathing became more rapid, and the face of the spliced ghost vaguely appeared on his back.
When Liu Ying came out and found no one outside, Li Chen moved.
The spliced ghost suddenly emerged from his body, with only one head and a long body on Li Chen's back.
In an instant, the splicing ghost was in front of Liu Ying, and before she could react, he had already pounced on her.
Li Chen had already walked in front of Liu Ying. At this time, Liu Ying's face was covered by a ghost, and she couldn't see who was in front of her at all.
At first, Liu Ying was still struggling, shouting no, and waving her hands and feet unconsciously.
But gradually, she fainted, but the daughter in the room was still smiling sweetly, and seemed to have had a good dream.
Things happened so fast that before Su Qin could react, Liu Ying was already controlled by Li Chen.
Su Qin knew that he couldn't change anything, all of this had already happened, but he couldn't leave this hellish place. He could only continue to watch as a bystander.
The ghostly figure on Li Chen carried Liu Ying and her daughter on their shoulders and walked towards the big locust tree.
Su Qin had no choice but to continue to follow.
When they reached the big locust tree, Li Chen put them down and dug a hole, but did not throw them in in a hurry.
He kept mumbling, "It's not me who wants to kill you, it's you who are disobedient. Don't blame me."
"No, they are my family. I can't do anything worse than a pig or a dog."
Su Qin heard Li Chen talking to himself, and he understood that this was the ghost in Li Chen affecting him.
Li Chen was constantly struggling in his heart, but for a long time, he had been gradually affected by ghosts and turned into a psychologically distorted person.
Immediately afterwards, Su Qin saw that Li Chen let the ghost on his body completely pounce on Liu Ying and the two of them, with scars appearing on their bodies from time to time and blood flowing.
Perhaps it was the pain that caused the mother and daughter to wake up. They kept shouting, but no one heard their cries in the middle of the night.
The two gradually lost their voices, and Li Chen also walked over, gently stroking Liu Ying's hand while talking about the good times in the past.
However, while he was saying sweet words, he was constantly torturing Liu Ying with his hands, breaking her limbs. It was hard to imagine what kind of perverted love this was.
Su Qin couldn't bear it anymore, so he rushed forward and shouted: "Stop, they are your wife and daughter."
Just when Su Qin was about to stop Li Chen, he felt an earth-shaking dizziness and Su Qin lost consciousness.
When Su Qin woke up, he had returned to reality, but Lao Wang's voice could be heard in his ears.
