"Mother Gan Xie!!!"
...
A loud shout broke through the silent night.
Sister Bai and I were awakened together.
He quickly put on his clothes and rushed out of the house. He opened the door of the shop and looked outside, only to find that it was Taoist Shangqing.
His hair was disheveled and he was sitting on the ground in a somewhat embarrassed state, holding a woman's bracelet in his hand.
I frowned, quickly stepped forward to help him up, and asked, "Shangqing Master, why are you howling here in the middle of the night?"
"I was howling wildly. I originally wanted to urge you to bring me the twenty-four golden futons, but who would have thought that as soon as I arrived at the door, I met a woman and was almost scared to death!" Taoist Shangqing said in a tone of voice. filled with dissatisfaction.
After hearing what he said, I suddenly became confused.
What kind of woman can show up at my door in the middle of the night? Could it be that she has escaped from a mental illness somewhere?
At this moment, he showed the chain in his hand and said, "Don't believe it? If you don't believe it, see it for yourself."
I was silent for a few seconds, then picked up the chain and took a look, and my heart suddenly trembled!
Because...this is the chain that Li Yingying often carries.
At this time, Sister Bai stood up, took the chain from my hand, took a look at it, and then said, "This chain belongs to Yingying, but something is wrong now!"
"What's wrong?" Sister Bai's words attracted my attention to that of Taoist Qing.
Sister Bai pondered for a few seconds, rubbed the chain, and then said calmly, "This chain is stained with evil spirit and has lost a bit of popularity. It is very different from before Li Yingying disappeared."
The words fell.
I couldn't help but turn my eyes to Taoist Shangqing.
But he quickly shook his head and said, "I didn't do this evil spirit. I just snatched it from some woman."
He explained to me that when he came here just now, he noticed a sneaky woman at the door of the shop. Then he followed the idea of eliminating demons and protecting the Tao, and went up to strike up a conversation...
Then I was scared to death by the woman, and I subconsciously wanted to take action, and then I grabbed a bunch of bracelets.
I asked, "You are an old Taoist priest who is several dozen years old. How can you still be scared?"
He replied, "Because that woman has the face of a weasel!"
As he spoke, his wrinkled old face turned pale, as if he was really frightened.
A weasel's face?
The moment I thought of this weasel, the first thought that came to my mind was that Huang Pizi was asking for a title.
But this is obviously not the case now.
Just when I wanted to ask a few more questions, Sister Bai next to me gave me a look.
I glanced at her suspiciously, pondered for a few seconds, then turned to Taoist Shangqing and said, "I have already found someone to order the twenty-four golden futons, and I will send them to you in a few days. If nothing happens, Son, please go back early."
"Why!?"
"I finally came here once, but you didn't invite me in to sit down?" Taoist Shangqing looked at me in confusion.
I glanced at him and replied, "It's a little inconvenient this late at night, so go to bed early."
"Damn, you kid kicked the paper right after you pooped. How disgusting!" Shang Qingdaoyun cursed and turned around to leave.
Return to the room.
I sat in front of Sister Bai and asked doubtfully, "Sister Bai, what did you want to say just now?"
"I want to ask you, did Yingying place a yellow leather statue at home?" Sister Bai sat on the bed with her legs crossed, her silky nightgown showing off the graceful curves of her hips to the fullest.
I looked away, thought for a few seconds, and replied, "That seems to be the case."
When Li Yingying first arrived in Dongyang from the north, she indeed placed a yellow leather statue at home and worshiped it every day.
And after we moved to Kuncheng, she seemed to have moved this statue with us.
Sister Bai pursed her red lips and said, "Go and find out. I want to see if Yingying's accident has anything to do with this statue."
"Okay." I agreed without hesitation.
After leaving the door, he ran directly to the room where Li Yingying had slept before. He searched around inside and found no statues.
Then I searched around the basement and various rooms, but still couldn't find any clues.
At this moment, Murong Xue suddenly came out and asked me with a smile, "What are you looking for?"
"Looking for a yellow leather statue, do you know where to put it?" I replied with almost no expectations.
But what I didn't expect was that Murong Xue actually said she knew!
I quickly asked, "Where?"
"It's in the flower bed. I don't know who buried it. I found it two days ago, but I haven't dug it out yet." Murong Xue said as she led me to a flower bed in the yard. Next to him, he pointed to one of the larger flower beds and said, "You can dig it yourself, it's right here."
I nodded quickly, stretched out my hand and started digging.
But halfway through the planing, the back of my neck suddenly felt chilly...
It was as if a dark wind was blowing from behind.
My heart tightened, and my scalp suddenly became numb. I subconsciously turned my head and looked around, but found nothing.
Is it an illusion?
I gritted my teeth and continued what I was doing.
I opened the flower bed in twos and twos, and immediately saw a wooden statue wrapped in red cloth.
Regardless of what the statue looked like, I picked it up decisively and trotted to Sister Bai's room.
"Bai...Sister Bai, I found it!"
After yelling towards the room, Sister Bai immediately stood up and took the statue from my hand.
When they lifted the white cloth and took a look, everyone present was stunned.
This statue is indeed in the shape of a weasel, but it is covered in a strange blood-red color, as if it had been thrown into bloody water and soaked for several days and nights, exuding a strong smell of blood.
Sister Bai's expression suddenly changed, and she dropped the statue to the ground with a 'click' sound, and said in a hasty tone, "This... this... this is human blood!!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden "Ong" in my mind.
"Human...human blood?"
Li Yingying had done this before. Why was this statue soaked in human blood?
Sister Bai's breathing gradually became faster, she picked up the statue from the ground again, put it on the table, turned to me and said, "Lu Ming, go to Yingying's room quickly and look for her hair. Or other explanations, I want to verify whether this blood is Yingying!"
"Okay, I'll go right away." I nodded in agreement and immediately rushed to Li Yingying's room.
After finding a strand of Li Yingying's hair on the pillow, she immediately handed it to Sister Bai.
She picked up the hair, wrapped it in a talisman, silently recited a few spells, and then glued a trace of the blood on the statue...
After a while, the results came out.
What I never expected was that the blood on the statue was indeed Li Yingying's.
How much blood is needed to dye the entire statue red...!
