Thinking of this, I lit three incense sticks at the feet of the stone lion again, but this time there was no name, no respect for the land, no respect for ghosts and gods, the purpose was to test whether there was anything abnormal about the stone lion.
After waiting for a while, the three incense sticks on the ground showed no response and were still burning at a slow speed.
Weird
Could it be that we are really overthinking?
To be on the safe side, I decided to try another method.
I took out the cinnabar and made a soul-attracting charm in front of the lion.
The soul-attracting talisman changes when it encounters the soul, so it is best to use it as a test. As long as a soul appears, the talisman will definitely react. Once the talisman changes, it means that the stone lion is really tricky, and this method is basically 100% accurate.
When I made this final stroke, I was inevitably a little nervous. If this stone lion became a spirit, I wouldn't be able to deal with it at all.
I recited the incantation, then slapped the soul-drawing talisman with my hand, driving the talisman into the body of the stone lion. Then I stared at the talisman firmly.
After several seconds of this, surprisingly, Fu Lu didn't react at all.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that there really was no soul inside the stone lion. After all, I could still trust this soul attracting talisman.
In this case, it seems that I really think too much?
I smiled bitterly and shook my head, turned around and walked towards the car, but the moment I turned around, I suddenly felt like I was being stared at.
When I turned around, I saw nothing behind me.
I laughed at myself secretly. I was so suspicious that I shook my head and walked back to the car.
"How is it?" Long Shuiyao asked quickly.
I shook my head, "No response! It seems the stone lion is fine."
"Really?" Long Shuiyao was overjoyed.
"Judging from the testing, there is indeed no problem. There is no soul in the stone lion, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Oh, it's nothing." I shook my head quickly to get rid of the sudden thought that popped up in my mind. This thought was too terrifying.
"Could it be that the land god showed up?" Long Shuiyao asked.
"It's not impossible." I breathed a sigh of relief.
"What should we do next?" Long Shuiyao asked.
"wait."
"wait?"
"Yes, let's wait until 12 o'clock. When the yin and yang alternate, we will take action again."
Long Shuiyao nodded, quickly took out a few tissues and handed them to me, letting me wipe the rain off my face, and then she tore off my forehead with her hands.
Then, she opened the car door and went around to the back of the car. After a while, she took out a quilt from the trunk.
"Master Ninth, please rest for a while first! I'll just stick to the time."
While talking, Long Shuiyao began to flatten the seats in the car, and the seats turned into a big bed in an instant.
Long Shuiyao helped me spread the quilt and let me lie down and rest.
To be honest, I was very touched. If this was normal, I would definitely let her rest and watch her, but now I am not feeling well and I am not polite to her. I wrap myself up in a quilt and huddle in the corner.
Not long after, I fell into a deep sleep.
In a daze, I had a dream, in which I dreamed that this huge dead lion suddenly came to life, then opened its bloody mouth and pounced on me.
Just as I was about to be swallowed by it, I suddenly felt a chill in my body, as if a cold wind was blowing in.
Immediately afterwards, I felt someone shaking my arm.
"Master Ninth, wake up, wake up." Long Shuiyao's voice was very soft.
"What's wrong?"
I quickly opened my eyes and found a nervous expression on Long Shuiyao's face.
"Look quickly."
Long Shuiyao pointed outside the window and said softly.
I quickly sat up from my seat and looked out through the window. I was stunned at the sight.
I saw a woman in white clothes appearing next to the stone lion.
"Who is this? Still awake in the middle of the night?" I couldn't help but ask.
Long Shuiyao seemed very nervous, and quickly made a silence gesture to me, and whispered:
"This is the woman in white who was killed in a car accident in front of the stone lion."
I was stunned for a moment, then looked over again, and sure enough I found that this woman's feet did not occupy any space. It was obvious that she was a ghost.
This woman has been dead for so long. Logically speaking, she should have been reincarnated and is still wandering here. It must be abnormal.
"Are you sure this is the woman who had the car accident?" I asked.
"It's definitely her. I was at the scene on the day of the car accident and her clothes were exactly the same." Long Shuiyao said with certainty.
I nodded, "Ruhu... If this is really the case, then this woman did not die in a normal car accident, but was murdered."
"Being murdered?" Long Shuiyao's expression changed drastically.
"If she died in a car accident, she should have been reincarnated into the reincarnation long ago. Now her soul is still lingering, wandering back and forth. She should be a person who resents death, so I conclude that he must have been harmed by someone."
Long Shuiyao Bingxue was smart and immediately guessed the meaning of my words, "You mean someone deliberately murdered me here and used murder to frame me."
"It's not to frame you, but to discredit Kowloon City. Nothing can create a bigger stunt than an accidental death. Only in this way will others dare not buy your house in Kowloon City."
"Were the two subsequent car accidents intentional?" Long Shuiyao's voice was full of shock.
"This is definitely the case. Otherwise, how could there be three traffic accidents happening here at the same time, unless someone paid to bribe them."
"They are from the Li family, right?" Long Shuiyao said through gritted teeth.
"Who else but them can they reap the benefits only if your house cannot be sold?" I sneered.
"Bastard!" Long Shuiyao gritted his silver teeth.
"Although their methods are insidious, they are very effective. At least, your house can no longer be sold."
"Despicable!" Long Shuiyao clenched his silver teeth, his eyes filled with anger and helplessness.
"Don't worry, they won't be arrogant for much longer," I said coldly.
Long Shuiyao glanced at me and suddenly changed his tone, "Master Ninth, I know you are doing it for my own good, but if you are really involved, the Li family will not let you go."
Long Shuiyao's face was full of worry.
"I know."
"But it's not all because of you that I did this. The Li family and I are bound to be on opposite sides. I would have done this even without you."
At least it won't put too much psychological burden on Long Shuiyao. I don't want to make the relationship between us too complicated.
Long Shuiyao gave me a complicated look, nodded silently, and the car fell into a brief silence.
After a while, Long Shuiyao asked me what to do next. I raised my hand and looked at the time, and it happened to be 12 o'clock at night.
"Wait for me in the car."
With that said, I opened the car door and prepared to get out of the car, but at this moment, Long Shuiyao's voice rang again.
