C36 (2/2)

Faintly standing up, I walked to the door and opened it to see Chu Lingyun and Fang Ya standing outside.

”Brother Liu, what happened to you? Why is your face so ugly?”

”It's you two. What's the matter?”

I said dispiritedly, ”If there's nothing else, don't disturb me. I want to sleep.”

Chu Lingyun softly said, ”Alright then, I'll come and find you tomorrow.”

I closed the door behind me and went into the bathroom to take a shower. I had been living a life of savagery these past few days, and I had indeed become a lot more haggard.

I yawned and walked out of the bathroom. I reached into my backpack and took out the few magic tools. I placed them on the table. The copper bell made a crisp sound.

I was stunned and stretched out my hand to grab the axe on the incense table, ”How did you get in here? Where did this ghost come from to act so atrociously? Do you want its soul to scatter?!”

”Don't... I did not do it intentionally. It was you, Master, who summoned me. ”

”Bullshit...” When did I summon you! ”

The wandering soul pointed at the bronze bell on the incense table, then said somewhat fearfully, ”That thing in your hand is a Soul Summoning Bell. As long as the Soul Summoning Bell rings, the nearby ghosts will all report to this place.”

”You mean this?” I extended my hand to take the bronze bell and gently shook it twice. Following a crisp sound, a ball of white mist appeared in the room and the temperature immediately dropped. I vigilantly looked around me before a dozen or so wandering souls appeared within the room. They uniformly stood in two rows and kneeled before me.

”This... ”What does that mean?” The lordmaster's treasure was truly amazing. It could actually command the surrounding ghosts to do something for him.

I coughed lightly and said, ”About that …” I told you guys to come here and help me find two people. If you find them, then tell me immediately. ”

I specially drew two portraits of the man in black who came to snatch the tokens that night. Although the paintings were not very professional, I could still barely see through them. I had no choice but to bring these brats over, but I didn't know what to do to make them lose face like this. It wasn't easy for me to send away those brats. I placed the bronze bell in front of the old man's spirit tablet as if I had found a great treasure.

I took the bronze mirror and placed it on the tea table. Looking around, I didn't find anything special.

I was also a little tired and drank a few cans of beer. My head felt a little dizzy. I got up and went into my bedroom to lie down on the bed. Not long later, I fell asleep. I had a strange dream that I was in my own living room, and then the old man appeared.

”Old Man …” So it's you who's looking for me? ” The old man sat down on the sofa. Beside him were two paper men who were massaging his waist and legs. He hadn't received such treatment in his previous life, but after he died, he began to enjoy his blessings.

”Lordmaster, how did you die? Can you tell me?” The old man only smiled at me without saying a word. His smile was a bit strange and cautious.

I vigilantly said, ”Old Gramps, can you stop laughing and quickly say it?”

The old man pointed out the window, and I looked back. It was dark outside, with only a snow-white moon hanging in the night sky.

”What do you want me to see?” I looked back and saw that the old man had disappeared.
