Chapter 121 Perhaps, the witch spirit has also upgraded its skills?
Bai Rong and all the undead that have nothing to do with the suicide can find Si Ye, and one thing is certain, Bai Rong has not appeared since she disappeared, so...
"Where is Lin Ran? Please think carefully about her situation in the dream." Cheng Zhan helped Si Ye review the situation.
Si Ye remembered everything about Lin Ran clearly and didn’t even have to think about it. He said, “Lin Ran came to my dream twice. The first time she told me how she died, and the second time she said goodbye to me.
.She has indeed disappeared, but unlike Bai Rong’s situation, she has not disappeared.”
Lin Ran waved goodbye to him solemnly. On the first night after the police issued the notice, she slowly walked into the laboratory building, as if it was her home.
"She has no fear."
Si Ye emphasized that Lin Ran was different from Bai Rong and the undead in this regard.
Cheng Zhan analyzed, "According to the police and what we can find now, Bai Rong's death is related to the loan, and Lin Ran cannot escape responsibility in this loan relationship. This was the dispute between Bai Rong and Lin Ran during their lifetime, but Bai Rong's death was related to the loan."
After Rong died, when he asked you for help, he said it was related to Lin Ran, so it is very possible that the death of Bai Rong's soul was related to Lin Ran."
Si Ye agrees with this.
At that time, he asked Bai Rong, and Bai Rong did leave clues before disappearing. Looking at it now, what she really wanted to express was that the danger after her death was also related to Lin Ran.
"The first time Lin Ran came to see you, did you see a hand pushing her behind her back?" Cheng Zhan asked.
Si Ye nodded, yes, he saw it very clearly at that time, and this was what Lin Ran wanted to convey to him. At that time, Lin Ran was standing on the rooftop, and a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and pushed Lin Ran down.
And that hand...
Si Ye had a vague premonition in his mind, and he quickly passed it.
But Cheng Zhan's careful thinking helped him catch this premonition, "It will be the same as when you fell into an illusion on the rooftop."
right!
Si Ye's spine stiffened.
That hand came from a dream to reality.
"Can you see it's the same hand?" Cheng Zhan asked carefully.
Si Ye tried hard to remember, but then shook his head, "It seems...a little different. The hand that pushed Lin Ran was slightly fat, and the hand that pulled me was quite thin, but it seemed...both hands belonged to a woman."
Cheng Zhan did not have the ability to enter other people's dreams, so he could only rely on Si Ye's memory to judge some things. He asked Lin Ran back and asked Si Ye to think about what Lin Ran looked like when he jumped off the building.
It looks like...
At that time, Si Ye only paid attention to that hand, and really didn't care about Lin Ran's expression. What kind of expression can a person who jumps from a building have? If he was murdered, his expression must be one of panic. If he really committed suicide, his expression should be one of relief and peace.
Decide.
But he still closed his eyes and thought carefully, thinking about Lin Ran's appearance when she appeared in the laboratory building, and the look on her face standing on the edge of the rooftop...
No, wait!
"Lin Ran has no expression!" Si Ye said in shock.
No expression.
He walked to the rooftop like a wooden man, and then the hand stretched out from behind and pushed Lin Ran down. The experimental building was quite high, and Si Ye remembered that Lin Ran made a sound a few seconds after he was pushed down.
scream.
People who can choose to commit suicide by jumping off a building are extremely sad and rarely make screams of terror. Besides, even if they scream, the normal logic is that they start the moment they jump. How can you say that they only scream when they jump halfway?
?Including being killed.
It can only be explained that Lin Ran lost consciousness from the moment he went up to the rooftop, and only reacted after being pushed down.
Cheng Zhan also thought about it and pointed out the key issue——
"So, it was not a human being who killed Lin Ran."
That hand was not the murderer's hand in real life.
This is why neither the police nor the director could find any clues about the murderer on the rooftop.
not human……
"What could that be?" Si Ye was excited, "Ghosts kill people?"
This is also common in movies and TV dramas. Ghosts are bewitching, and the way to kill a person is to confuse people's hearts. Like Lin Ran, it really looks like someone who was bewitched by a ghost and died.
Cheng Zhan was silent.
He connected the clues given by Si Ye one by one and slowly analyzed them. Then he came up with a key point, "Your physique should not be affected by ghosts."
Si Ye understood that he was referring to the illusion he had on the rooftop.
"Then what do you mean..." He had a vague feeling, but he wasn't so sure yet.
Cheng Zhan stared at him, "Judging from your reaction tonight, it's the Wu Ling."
Si Ye's back suddenly tightened, and his eyes subconsciously fell on Cheng Zhan's neck. The red mark was so hard that he couldn't pinch it out normally.
Cheng Zhan knew he had thought of the key.
"You have been affected by witch spirits before, and your reactions are often different from ordinary people." Cheng Zhan frowned slightly, "It's just that this time, you have become more aggressive."
Si Ye was speechless for a long time, then asked, "If it is really a witch spirit, then... which one would it be?"
"Desire" has been taken away, and there are still three left.
Although Si Ye's mind was buzzing, it was not difficult to sort out the remaining wizard spirits. There were still evil, anger and sorrow left. The first thing Si Ye thought of was——
"It's evil! It's influencing me to kill you, it must be evil!"
Cheng Zhan thought of the thoughts that had flashed through his mind before. At that moment, he had indeed suspected the witch spirit, and it was the most evil one. However, he also felt that something was wrong. After all, he had not sensed the witch spirit.
"It's just speculation now. Your reaction does seem to be influenced by the witch spirit, but as long as the witch spirit appears, I won't know about it."
This is what Cheng Zhan can't figure out.
Si Ye said casually, "You may not be able to sense it in a dream."
It's really unintentional.
But Cheng Zhan was startled.
Seeing this, Si Ye felt unsure, "No way..."
Cheng Zhan shook his head, "This has never happened before. From ancient times to the present, there has never been a situation where a witch spirit entered a dream."
"Just...there's no precedent or anything?" Si Ye asked.
"No."
Although Cheng Zhan said this, there was hesitation in his eyes.
"Besides, they are not necessarily evil." He added, "Witch spirits are ferocious, and the remaining three are not good. They will each have their own evil ways in order to survive."
Si Ye understood that although the witch spirits had different attributes, their natures were the same. They were all extremely evil and their purpose was to devour the souls of parasites.
"But if it is a witch spirit, some things can be easily explained." Si Ye analyzed, "What could make Bai Rong and the undead afraid? It can't be a ghost anymore, what a evil ghost it is, besides
Witch spirit."
"Witch spirits are not ghosts." Cheng Zhan understood what Si Ye meant, "Just like the chance of appearing in a dream, the witch spirits devour the souls of living people, the souls of the undead..."
Cheng Zhan also said this while thinking, frowning slightly, "Witch spirits want entities. They want to truly exist in this world. There is no need to eat the souls of the undead."
Just like the witch spirit, no matter how hungry it is, it will not swallow the spiritual bodies of all things in the world, because it has no meaning.
"Perhaps..." Si Ye hesitated, "The wizard spirit also...has its skills upgraded?"
Seeing Cheng Zhan looking at him, he touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, "This is unlikely. They were transformed by a great witch. They are kings when they appear, so there is no need to upgrade."
In fact, Cheng Zhan didn't mean anything else when he glanced at him. He just thought his words were really... strange.
"We can't make a conclusion on this matter yet," Cheng Zhan said, "but one thing is for sure. The one who pushed Lin Ran downstairs was probably not a witch spirit. If it was a witch spirit, it would have taken over his body and used it as a container. There is no need to kill him.
Got her."
This is true.
Si Ye nodded. If he killed her, there would be nothing left.
Although they figured out some things tonight, new questions arose at the same time.
Si Ye murmured, "If Bai Rong's panic comes from Lin Ran, then who is Lin Ran after death?" At this point, he added, "The only thing I can think of is a ghost."
Cheng Zhan was silent and seemed to disagree with this.
"It's not impossible for fierce ghosts to eat ghosts, right?" Si Ye asked Cheng Zhan.
He felt that things like witches and spirits existed, and he had dreamed about undead souls, and even saw ghosts in broad daylight. It was normal for the presence of evil ghosts to exist.
Even bad guys are hungry sometimes...
Cheng Zhan told the truth, "I have never been in contact with evil ghosts."
In other words, there is no way to determine whether there are evil spirits.
Si Ye thought, he was really stuck in an ideological impasse.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Cheng Zhan suddenly ask, "Eat? Did you just say eat?"
"Yes, fierce ghosts eat ghosts."
After Si Ye finished speaking, he leaned forward and asked, "Did it inspire you something?"
Cheng Zhan thought and said nothing.
In fact, I suddenly had a feeling for the word "eat", a fleeting thought, but it was in vain.
Si Ye was curious and looked at him with a lowered face.
When Cheng Zhan came to his senses, he realized that Si Ye's handsome face was close to his own, and he stretched out his hand to push his face aside. Si Ye slumped over again, taking the opportunity to cry, "No matter what I say, it's okay."
Victim, please be gentle with me."
Cheng Zhan felt that this man really knew how to beat someone up, so he asked him, "In terms of external injuries, which one of us is more of a victim?"
Si Ye had nothing to say.
He simply lay down and pulled up the quilt, "I don't want to think about it anymore, my head hurts just thinking about it. The boat will naturally straighten up when it reaches the bridge. Let's go to sleep."
Cheng Zhan looked at his heartless look and sighed, he was really tolerant.
Lying down again, Cheng Zhan completely lost sleep.
The surroundings were very quiet.
Gradually, Si Ye also fell asleep, breathing deeply and steadily.
Cheng Zhan looked at the dim sky outside the window, and what came to his mind was the scene where Si Ye went crazy in the bathroom.
That look in his eyes seemed familiar to him. Where had he seen it before?
…
During class on Monday, Shen Xun walked up to Si Ye and teased him privately, "Have you grown up with Senior Cheng? Do you like to go to the graduate school so much?"
Si Ye lazily took a look at what the old professor said above. It was indeed profound. He said, "I'm discussing things with Senior Cheng. It's too late and I'm too lazy to bother."
Just when Shen Xun was about to open his mouth, Si Ye said again, "If you still try to persuade me to stay away from Senior Cheng, then you can do it. If he really is a monster, I would have been caught by being with him every day these days."
Shen Xun sighed.
In fact, it was not a matter of persuasion, he just felt that Cheng Zhan was not a normal person, but he could not explain the specific reason why he was abnormal. In the end, he gave up and did not mention Senior Cheng anymore.
Lifting his chin diagonally forward, "Look Xiao Xu, the situation is getting worse and worse."
Xiao Xu was lying there sleeping, his face turned sideways, so he couldn't see it from Si Ye's point of view.
Shen Xun talked about Xiao Xu’s situation——
"I can't always sleep well at night, and it's different from my previous situation. He always says there's a ghost in our dormitory, or he'll nervously ask us where we've been. We're all sleeping in bed and haven't gone anywhere. Ah, he doesn’t believe it.”
Xiao Xu always wakes up in the middle of the night, saying that there are noises in the bathroom, and he doesn't want to go to the bathroom, but he seems to be being pulled by someone to go, so he always sees a disheveled woman coming out and giving him a weird look. smile.
He shouted to the others desperately and found that he was the only one in the dormitory.
"If he really got up in the middle of the night and yelled, we would definitely be able to hear him, but he was just dreaming, and he wouldn't believe it even if he said it." Shen Xun gestured, "The dark circles under his eyes are serious."
Si Yinli knew what was going on. The power of Hexu could not be easily solved, unless Cheng Zhan himself was willing to take it back. Furthermore, Hexu could cause hallucinations, but the degree of severity depends on the human mind.
People who have evil thoughts or secrets in their hearts will be deeply poisoned by Hexu, and the hallucinations they see are often strong. From this look, Xiao Xu has a lot of filth hidden in his heart.
It's also Zhonghexu, and now Shen Xun seems to be fine.
But just in case, Si Ye looked at Shen Xun carefully and asked, "Don't worry about others, let me ask you, how do you feel?"
"Hey, I'm fine. It's just a big scare. It just scares the soul out. Just scream." Shen Xun said carelessly.
Si Ye pretended to be surprised, "You are quite powerful, you can also summon spirits."
"I called my family, and they used the soul-calling method that the elders used, such as holding their ears and shouting their names," Shen Xun said.
Si Ye smiled and said, "I told you that you have lost your soul. Is it any use to summon your soul?"
"Souls are all the same regardless of family. Look at me now, I'm full of life." Shen Xun disagreed.
Si Ye smiled.
I thought to myself, that's because you don't have any evil thoughts, and also because Cheng Zhan didn't continue to argue with you.
Although Si Ye feels that Cheng Zhan is not a narrow-minded person, and he has never seen him care about anything. But he is just bored and playing tricks on others. Isn't Shen Xun an example?
This happened to be blocked by Lin Ran's affairs, which distracted Cheng Zhan's attention, otherwise Shen Xun might have suffered losses for a while.
Shen Xun looked at Xiao Xu again and whispered to Si Ye, "Tell me, could it be that Lin Ran really came to find him?"
Si Ye looked at Xiao Xu's back and said, "Maybe."
"But if he really did something bad, wouldn't he have been taken away by the police long ago?" Shen Xun hesitated.
Si Ye sighed, "Sometimes the wrong thing to do may be the knife that indirectly kills people. This is more terrifying than the open knife."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Xu suddenly sat up.
It startled the people next to me.
I saw Xiao Xu first looking around, then as if he saw something, he suddenly became nervous, stood up suddenly, and waved his hands in the air, "No, don't come here! Don't come here!"
The last sentence was almost hysterical. After shouting, he ran out of the classroom, knocking many tables and chairs.
