The two walked downstairs, where Fang Lan, Lin Ling and Jia Di had been waiting anxiously for them.
Li Ao came to them and said: "What you encountered this time is a resentful spirit. There is no doubt about it, but the situation is not that bad. We still have a certain chance of winning."
Fang Lan and Lin Ling were overjoyed after hearing this. In any case, Li Ao's words gave them reassurance.
Li Ao said: "Don't get too happy yet. Aren't you curious why you only hear the sound of washing in the laundry room at midnight every day?"
Everyone shook their heads, and Li Ao explained: "The second strange story in Dongcheng has been rumored in Dongcheng Middle School for at least ten years. When this strange story first started, it only appeared once every Wednesday at midnight. That hasn't changed over the years, and it's only recently that these incidents have become so frequent that they occur every day."
Li Ao continued: "This is not a good sign. I went to see it just now. The 'spiritual power' of the resentful spirit is too strong and too persistent. Her murderous intention is greater than hatred. In recent years, due to the troubles caused by the six ghost stories in Dongcheng , there are not a few students who died in Dongcheng Middle School, and the resentment gathered by the deceased makes it more and more powerful, and if it is not stopped in time, it will break out of the house one day. "
"If the evil spirit rushes out, it will not be so easy to subdue it. For the past ten years, she has been waiting for someone, waiting for someone who can take her out, and this person must be the first to be killed by it in the laundry room. The ghost outside the room.”
At this point, Li Ao stopped. Needless to say, everyone understood the rest.
Fang Lan couldn't accept it and asked, "Why? Why is Lin Ling this person? This matter has nothing to do with her."
Li Ao shook his head and said: "It can only be said that it is unlucky. Lin Ling's fate should complement that of the resentful spirit. Fusion of her soul can greatly increase the strength of the resentful spirit."
"At first, the resentful spirit didn't notice Lin Ling, but there was a wall between your bed and the laundry room. When Lin Ling and you exchanged beds, the resentful spirit felt that there was someone on the other side of the wall that she had always wanted. Soul gained.”
"Her mental power was probably not strong at that time. From that night on, she has been attacking Lin Ling's mental power. This is why Lin Ling feels like she is getting deeper and deeper as she sleeps."
"I estimate that Lin Ling had already lost a soul that night. Ordinary people would be fine if they lost one soul in a short period of time. The resentful spirit had only been in contact with Lin Ling's soul for one day, and her strength improved. So that the next night you heard the sound of midnight laundry again, and the sound has never stopped since then."
Li Ao continued his analysis: "In the next few days, Lin Ling has been fighting mentally against the resentful spirit. Then the earth soul was lost, and the heavenly soul left for a while, so this caused Lin Ling to become comatose."
As he said that, Li Ao rolled his eyes at Mo Lin again and continued: "You don't know about Lin Ling's situation. Using the soul arresting technique to arrest Lin Ling's soul would logically not succeed, but you did it. , although it saved Lin Ling in a sense, it also completely dragged you down into this muddy water."
Jiadi on the side asked: "Brother Ao, why didn't you kill her just now?"
Li Ao scratched his head and said, "I haven't figured out how to deal with her yet. If she fails to escape this time, it will be difficult to eliminate her in the future."
"I'll prepare and come to deal with her tomorrow night and try to solve it at once."
Li Ao looked at Lin Ling and told her: "You must not sleep too hard at night. As long as you sleep too hard, the resentful spirit can pull you into her world from the dream. You can set the alarm clock." , it rings once every forty minutes. Every time it rings, get up and wash your face before going to bed."
Jia Di said in surprise: "Wha...what, I get up every forty minutes, and I still can't sleep tonight."
"There is no other way, Lin Ling must hold on."
Li Ao explained some more things, and everyone dispersed. Mo Lin and Jia Di returned to the dormitory, and Li Ao returned to Zhonghua Pavilion alone.
The next day, Mo Lin went to school as usual and chatted with Han Lu about Fang Lan during her spare time. After all, Han Lu also knew about this.
Soon more than half of the day passed. After school, Mo Lin did not go back to the dormitory, but went directly to the Chinese Pavilion.
As soon as he entered the Zhonghua Pavilion, he saw the clerk named Liu Tao cleaning, and Liu Tao also noticed him.
Liu Tao smiled and said, "I know you. You came to Li Ao for help last time."
Mo Lin said: "Yes, my name is Mo Lin. I have something urgent and want to see Li Ao."
"Oh, he's in the penultimate room on the third floor, turning left."
Mo Lin thanked Liu Tao and hurried up.
Mo Lin came to the room Liu Tao was talking about and pushed in the door. At this time, Li Ao was holding a carving knife and carving dense runes on a gourd.
Li Ao's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. Just when Mo Lin came in, Li Ao let out a sigh of relief and put down the carving knife in his hand.
Mo Lin walked in and asked, "Brother Ao, what are you doing?"
"I have already thought of a way to deal with the resentful spirits." Li Ao said, "What do you think of this gourd?"
Mo Lin glanced at the gourd in Li Ao's hand. It was covered with dense runes, and there was a lot of spiritual energy flowing on the gourd.
Li Ao said: "I made this overnight. The gourd itself has a lot of spiritual energy. Coupled with the Taishang spirit-suppressing runes I carved on it, it will definitely trap the resentful spirits."
"As long as the resentful spirit enters my gourd, no matter how strong her spiritual power is, she will not be able to break through this gourd."
"When the time comes, we'll have another fried ghost and we'll be able to eliminate her."
Mo Lin said: "Then let's leave when we are ready. Fang Lan and Lin Ling are still waiting for us."
"okay!"
Li Ao simply packed his things, called a taxi, and arrived at school in a short time.
They came to the downstairs of Fang Lan's dormitory. Li Ao originally planned to use a blindfold to get in like last time, but soon they found that there was no one in this building, not even the dormitory aunt.
Li Ao said to himself: "What is this situation? No one is there?"
Mo Lin said: "Let's go to Fang Lan's dormitory first."
Mo Lin and Li Ao walked to the fourth floor. They didn't see anyone since entering the building. They walked straight to Fang Lan's dormitory.
"What the hell is Banhua doing? The door isn't even closed."
Li Ao didn't knock on the door and just pushed the door open. Mo Lin followed Li Ao. When they entered, they saw an old man and an eleven or twelve-year-old boy sitting inside.
The old man looked to be in his sixties and was still blind; the young man was sitting next to the old man, carrying a cloth bag on his back.
