In the chaotic darkness, I saw a black figure appear in front of my eyes. He slowly walked towards me. It wasn't until he was only a few meters away from me that I could see clearly who he was. It was Hei Laoba!
"Eighth Master..."
"I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon, or in this way..." Hei Laoba walked up to me and looked down at me.
He is still so arrogant, and I still can't see his face clearly.
"This way? What do you mean?" I looked at him puzzled.
Hei Laoba did not continue speaking, but pulled out a black chain from his waist. Just when I was confused, he suddenly took action and locked my neck with the chain...
"Master Ba! What do you mean?" I asked nervously.
"Don't you understand yet?"
Hei Lao Ba walked in front and said without looking back.
"Understand what? In the end..."
Before I could ask the question, I suddenly thought of something. Qing Yi's last blow hit my Tianling Gai. Could it be that... I'm dead?
"Master Ba! Wait, I want to see my master!"
Hei Laoba stopped and turned around slowly,
"If you have anything to ask Huo Qian to do, I allow you to entrust your dream to him, or for the sake of our acquaintance, I can also do it for you."
"I don't want to ask for a dream, and I don't want you to do anything for me. I want to go back to see my master!" I was a little excited.
"Presumptuous!!" Hei Lao Ba shouted.
I wanted to say something more, but suddenly I heard a vague sound in my ear. This sound seemed to be in a very far place, but also seemed to be right next to my ear. It was erratic, but it was very loud...
I couldn't help but prick up my ears and listen attentively...
"Soul Lin Yu, return to my altar quickly!"
"Soul Lin Yu, return to my altar quickly!"
My body trembled, this voice... was Yun Fei!
As soon as I heard his voice, I suddenly felt a lightness in my body, and the chain around my neck automatically separated, and I floated in a certain direction uncontrollably, as if I was attracted by something...
But Ba Ye just stood there and looked at me, without any movement in his hands.
I don’t know how long it took, but when I opened my eyes, I found myself lying on Lu Daqian’s bed again. It was still dark outside the window. Yun Fei and Gu Han were standing aside and looking at each other with worried faces.
I.
"You're finally awake..." Gu Han said with a long sigh of relief, a rare look of worry appeared on her originally cold face.
"I...what's wrong with me?"
Yunfei also sighed and explained:
"You were hit by Tsing Yi in the end. The three life lamps on your shoulders and head were all extinguished. Three souls and seven souls were separated from the body. You were almost buried with Tsing Yi. Fortunately, I used my secret skills to help you summon the soul.
It’s so suspenseful to have your soul return to its original place…”
I thought of the last scene again in my mind, and I was still frightened.
"Gu Han, Qing Yi was killed by you in the end, right? Those paper figures..." I looked at Gu Han and asked.
"If you hadn't used incense ash to write the word "Yu" on her forehead to freeze her ghost body for a moment, I wouldn't have killed her so easily."
Hearing what Gu Han said, I suddenly remembered the tragic scene of Qing Yi’s last scene with blood and flesh flying everywhere. What was in my mind? The seeker looked at Yun Fei and asked:
"Qing Yi said she was the ghost of three lives. She died in one life by hanging, in another she died by shooting, and in the third she died in Ling Chi?"
Yunfei nodded solemnly,
"That's right, her ghost body was wrapped in cloth strips. In fact, it was just a pile of minced meat wrapped inside. Such a cruel way of death, plus she was an opera singer in Tsing Yi for three lives, and she died under trial in all three lives..."
"That's why she developed such strong resentment and obsession that even if she reincarnates, she can still remember her death in her last life. It's not surprising that she became the leader of ghosts... But in any case, my Shan Jiu Tiansha finally succeeded this time.
It's broken, I have to thank you very much."
"Then be my little brother from now on..."
I made a joke and suddenly thought of something...
"How come you know so much about Qing Yi? Could it be that you can calculate her past and present lives?"
"hehe…"
Yunfei adjusted his glasses habitually and said with a smile:
"I don't have that ability. It was... Master Ba told me."
"Master Ba? When did you see him?" I asked in surprise.
"Just a few minutes before you wake up..."
I was stunned, and suddenly I figured it out. It seemed that Master Ba had no intention of locking away my soul. Otherwise, with his methods, when Yun Fei was trying to lure my soul away, he could have stopped him, and there would be no need.
I came here specially to talk to Yunfei so much.
But... why would he do this?
At this time, Gu Han said to me:
"Stop thinking so much. You are still very weak. Have a good night's rest. We will return to Jiangcheng tomorrow. Huo Qian should have returned to the Soul-Yining Hall."
I looked overjoyed and calculated the time in my mind. Indeed, the teacher had already come back by this time, so I didn’t say anything more and fell asleep...
The next morning, after saying goodbye to Lu Daqian, Yunfei and I boarded the train back to Jiangcheng. Just like when we arrived, Gu Han turned into a paper man again and hid in my backpack.
Sitting on the train, I couldn't help but ask Yunfei,
"Can you figure out who is the person of Quan Yin and Ten Spirits and the reincarnation of the evil immortal?"
Yunfei shook his head,
"I have tried many times before, but they all failed. I guess this may be a taboo in the art of calculation, but I am not sure exactly why."
I was a little disappointed. I thought that after finding the all-powerful Yun Fei, I would be able to avoid some detours, but it seems that my thinking was too simple.
A few hours later, the train finally pulled into Jiangcheng. After getting off the train, the sky had darkened. Yunfei said that he still had some things to deal with. After finishing it, he would go to see the master in person to ask about his fate...
I took a taxi directly back to the coffin-stopping old street. After getting off the car, I couldn’t wait to run to the Yinhun Hall. After not running far, I saw an old man sitting in front of the stall of the Yinhun Hall. The old man was wearing a mandarin jacket and holding a hand in his hand.
He was shaking a folding fan and looked unshaven and unruly...
