Because Lin Yingwan was lying next to him, Yang Xiaobao could only get up from the bed, walk to the bathroom, sit on the toilet, and answer Ma Xiangrong's call.
"Xiaobao, I'm sorry to wake you up." Ma Xiangrong said with a smile.
Yang Xiaobao looked at the time, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.
"It's okay." Yang Xiaobao asked, "Teacher Ma, are you okay with the phone call?"
"Xiaobao, you probably won't be able to return to Stone Village this time."
Sure enough.
"Did someone die again?" Yang Xiaobao asked.
Ma Xiangrong smiled and said, "Xiaobao, he is indeed dead."
Yang Xiaobao rubbed his forehead, sighed and asked, "Let's have breakfast together and talk about it when we meet."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaobao walked out of the bathroom and prepared to wake up Lin Yingwan.
But when he walked to Lin Yingwan, he found that she was already awake.
"Brother Xiaobao, is there something else going on?"
Yang Xiaobao sighed and said: "Yes, there is indeed something wrong, so get up quickly and I will take you back to school."
Lin Yingwan shook her head and said: "I was too tired yesterday and I haven't slept well yet. You can go by yourself. I will leave by myself later."
Yang Xiaobao smiled and said: "Who is to blame? Who made you so passionate yesterday?"
Lin Yingwan's face turned red and she said shyly, "What are you talking about?"
Yang Xiaobao smiled, quickly washed up, packed his things, and drove to the place where he had made an appointment with Ma Xiangrong to eat.
When they arrived at the place, Yang Xiaobao saw that all the Ma brothers had arrived.
"Teacher Ma, tell me, did someone die in the provincial capital for no apparent reason?" Yang Xiaobao asked after sitting down.
The Ma brothers looked at each other.
"Xiaobao, this time it's not the provincial capital." Ma Xiangrong said, "It's in another city."
"You also have to take care of the affairs of other cities?" Yang Xiaobao was a little surprised.
"Xiaobao, do you know Tengyang City?" Ma Xiangrong asked.
Yang Xiaobao was stunned for a moment and nodded: "I know, Tengyang City is a well-known coastal tourist city."
He looked at Ma Xiangrong curiously: "Tengyang City is quite far away from us, why do you worry about this place?"
"Xiaobao, where is Tengyang City in our country?"
Yang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Of course it's Dongfang."
"Do you remember what I told you last time about the opening of the gate to hell?"
Yang Xiaobao nodded, took a breath of air, and asked: "Teacher Ma, are you going to say that the opening of the Gate to Hell is related to Tengyang City?"
Ma Xiangrong said: "I told you last time that to open the Gate of Hell, you need to open the gates in the southeast, northwest and north respectively, and then you can open the Gate of Hell in the middle."
Yang Xiaobao seemed to understand somewhat.
"If it goes according to what you said, Tengyang is the gate to the East, right?"
When Ma Xiangrong heard Yang Xiaobao's words, he smiled and said, "It should be said that the eastern gate is in Tengyang City."
"How did you know? Isn't there a record?"
Ma Xiangrong shook his head and said: "There is no record, because the door to hell has never been truly opened."
"In other words, it was opened because it took too long and people at the time didn't pay attention, so no one knows where the doors in the southeast, northwest, and middle are." Lao Ma added.
When Yang Xiaobao heard what they said, he asked with some confusion: "Now that you say that, how do you know that Tengyang City is the Eastern Gate?"
"Because, there have been several inexplicable deaths in Tengyang City recently, and one happened yesterday."
Hearing what Ma Xiangrong said, Yang Xiaobao smiled.
"Teacher Ma, where are there not a few inexplicable deaths? How can we judge that it is Tengyang?"
Ma Xiangrong sighed and said: "Other deaths will usually come to a conclusion following the investigation. Even if they were done sneakily, local exorcists will solve them. But the situation here in Tengyang is very different. Local experts
We are all helpless."
At this time, the breakfast they requested was delivered.
Yang Xiaobao and the Ma brothers started to have breakfast.
"Teacher Ma, just tell me, what are you looking for me for? Do you want me to investigate this matter?" Yang Xiaobao asked while drinking porridge.
"Xiaobao, I hope you can go to Tengyang City with Xiang Hui to help with the investigation."
Yang Xiaobao shook his head without even thinking about it: "No, I won't go!"
"Why?" the Ma brothers asked in surprise.
Yang Xiaobao snorted and said, "Why don't you go?"
"Xiaobao, I have a lot of things going on here, so I can't leave."
"Then let Lao Ma go alone, I won't go anyway."
Ma Xiangrong sighed and said: "Xiaobao, there is actually another reason why I asked you to go. I didn't want to tell you at first, but now it seems that it is better to tell you."
Yang Xiaobao looked at Ma Xiangrong and asked, "Tell me, what is it?"
Ma Xiangrong hesitated for a moment and said to Yang Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, there is a person who appeared in Tengyang City not long ago."
"who?"
"Shi Ran from the Seven Star Gate."
"Shi Ran?!"
Yang Xiaobao almost jumped up.
Shi Ran was the senior brother of Jia Liang, and they had fought against each other before.
The Seven Star Gate is said to be for people to read Feng Shui, ward off evil spirits and catch ghosts, but in fact, it sometimes does dirty things.
Yang Xiaobao did not expect that Shi Ran would appear in Tengyang City.
"How do you know that Shi Ran and I are enemies?"
Ma Xiangrong smiled slyly and said, "Xiaobao, don't underestimate my network resources."
Yang Xiaobao sighed and said, "Well, it seems that I really underestimated you at the beginning."
"go?"
"Shi Ran really appeared in Tengyang City?"
Ma Xiangrong snorted and said speechlessly: "Xiaobao, how could I lie to you about this kind of thing? Who do you think I, Ma Xiangrong, am?"
Yang Xiaobao thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will go to Tengyang City."
"That's right!" Ma Xiangrong clapped his hands.
"I'll go with you," Lao Ma said, "so you don't have to have anything on your mind."
"When to set off?"
"Of course, the sooner the better." Lao Ma said, "What do you think? How about today?"
"Okay, I'll go to the hotel to pack my things later."
After breakfast, Yang Xiaobao returned to the hotel and saw Lin Yingwan already getting up and washing up.
He told Lin Yingwan to leave the provincial capital today. Lin Yingwan was a little surprised, but she didn't say anything and just nodded.
After packing his things, Yang Xiaobao drove Lin Yingwan back to school, and then went to pick up Lao Ma.
"Xiaobao, tell me about the grudge between you and the Seven Star Sect."
On the way, Lao Ma asked.
So Yang Xiaobao briefly told him what happened between him and the Seven Star Sect.
