No one responded!
I tried shouting again, but still didn’t hear Sister Shaoyao’s answer.
“Clang!”
Something fell to the ground and seemed to be broken. Yi Ba and I hurriedly ran over following the sound and found a clay pot broken to the ground.
“This clay pot looks like the same one we saw at Tong Shouzhi’s ghost farm!” I pointed to the fragments on the ground and asked Yi Ba.
"It is indeed the same model." Yi Ba nodded and said: "The clay pot broke. This means that the kid inside has grown up and has escaped."
" Is it because we came in that the kid came out?" I asked in a confused way.
"It should be."
Yi Ba took out a talisman, sandwiched it between his index finger and middle finger, and then muttered a spell there. After chanting for a while, the talisman clamped on Yi Ba's fingertips slowly started to smoke, and then ignited.
The talisman burned into ashes, and the green smoke it burned swirled in the air. After turning around a few times, Qing Yan headed towards the room in the southeast corner.
The door of that room was closed, and Yi Ba led the way and walked over cautiously. There was a noise, there was a noise in the room, it sounded like a woman was crying inside.
“There was crying, and I don’t know if it was Sister Shaoyao.” I said.
"I'll go in first, Brother Chuyi, be careful." Yi Ba pushed the door gently, and the door opened with a creak.
There were no lights in the room. Although there was moonlight streaming in from the window, it was still dark and nothing could be seen.
Yi Ba took a candle out and lit it. With the candlelight, the situation in the room could barely be seen clearly.
There was clearly a woman crying just now, but now when I shine a candle, there is nothing there? I looked at Yi Ba with confusion and asked, "Did that thing scare us away when we came in?"
"If she could be scared away, she wouldn't deliberately make that sound. The sound brought us here." Yi Ba said with a frown.
"Hehe...hehe..."
There was laughter, coming from the closet.
Yi Ba took the ghost-killing stick and opened the closet door. There is a cheongsam hanging in the closet. This cheongsam looks a bit familiar, very much like the one Sister Shaoyao wore today.
"Is this Sister Shaoyao's?" Yi Ba asked me, pointing to the cheongsam.
"It's a bit like it." I stared at the cheongsam carefully for a while and said with a puzzled face: "How did the cheongsam she was wearing end up in this closet? Is it possible? No, what happened to her?"
"Take it out and have a look," Yi Ba said.
I took out the cheongsam, and when I touched it, I seemed to feel a little residual warmth. Does it mean that this cheongsam was just taken off from Sister Shaoyao?
"Sister Shaoyao seems to like to spray perfume. Smell it and see if the smell on this cheongsam is hers?" Yi Ba gave me the instruction.
"Why am I smelling it?" I asked.
"I am a Taoist, and it is not convenient for me to do such obscene things. Besides, Sister Shaoyao has been on you before, so you should be very familiar with her smell." Yi Eight said.
Since Yi Badu has talked about this, naturally I can only reluctantly take a sniff!
It is quite fragrant, with the smell of perfume, mixed with a light feminine body fragrance. What makes me most embarrassed is that the fragrance emanating from this cheongsam feels very familiar to me.
"Is it ripe? Does it taste like this?" Yi Ba asked me.
"It's cooked." I nodded solemnly and said, "It should be Sister Shaoyao's."
Yi Ba gave me a thumbs up and said with a smile: "I knew it in the first year of junior high school." Brother, can you smell it?”
“Where is that thing that laughed just now?” I asked Yi Ba.
"The room is not as cold as before, which means that the ghost spirit has dissipated a lot, and the thing must have escaped." Yi Ba said.
"So, that thing deliberately attracted us to open the closet and find Sister Shaoyao's cheongsam?" I asked.
"Hmm!" Yi Ba frowned and said, "Sister Shaoyao must have had something happen to her. That thing made us find this cheongsam. I don't know if it was provoking us or for some other purpose."< br>
“No matter what, we have to find Sister Shaoyao first.” I said.
"Tong Shouzhi must be here. We need to find him and then have a good talk with him." Yi Badao said.
"Since you two have entered the door, let's come in and sit down!"
It was Tong Shouji's voice. After saying this, the room we were facing The lights in the room suddenly turned on. Yi Ba and I hurried over and saw that guy Tong Shouji sitting leisurely on a chair, drinking tea.
"Where's Sister Shaoyao?" I asked.
"She's here too?" Tong Shou looked behind me and Yi Ba, pretending to be confused, and said, "Why didn't I see it?"
“Don’t pretend to be stupid with me.” I glared at Tong Shouji and said, “I saw Sister Shaoyao entering your Gumanzhai with my own eyes, and I heard her scream. We came in and searched for a long time. , nor I saw her, but I found the cheongsam she was wearing."
"No way!" Tong Shouji said with a confused look on his face, "How about you do it again? Looking for it? My Gumanzhai only has a few rooms and the area is not large. You can search carefully one by one."
"What do you mean by that?" I asked Tong Shou. send.
"Didn't you say Sister Shaoyao is here with me? I said I didn't see her, but you didn't believe me. Then I can only let you search to prove my innocence!" Tong Shouji said.
Tong Shou sent this Gumanzhai, which is a place selling imps. There are so many imps hidden in it! Searching in his place would definitely not be that easy. I even have some suspicions that this guy Tong Shouji is deliberately trying to trick me and Yi Ba.
Yi Balna is far more professional than me in dealing with ghosts, so I looked at him and wanted to hear his ideas.
“Since Boss Tong has asked us to accept it, why are we so polite?” Yi Ba smiled, waved the ghost-killing staff in his hand twice, and said, “Boss Tong, you can You have to watch out for those little guys, or else I might accidentally get hurt, or something. Then I beat them to death, don’t blame me!”
“Don’t worry, I asked you to search to prove my innocence. Since I am sincere, of course I am. He will take good care of the kid!" Tong Shouji said politely.
Gumanzhai is indeed not big, just a few rooms. During the search, Tong Shouji did not find anything wrong. Yi Ba and I searched Gumanzhai everywhere, but we couldn't find Sister Shaoyao.
Is it true that Sister Shaoyao is not here? If she were here, Tong Shouji would never let us search her.
"You two, have you found it?" Tong Shou asked Yi Ba triumphantly when he saw that Yi Ba and I found nothing.
"Don't think that if you can't find it, we won't know it's you who is playing tricks." I replied coldly to Tong Shou.
"Since you two have searched everything and found nothing, I can only ask you two to leave." Tong Shou sent this message to drive us away!
After failing to find Sister Shaoyao, Yi Ba and I really have no reason to stay here anymore. So the two of us could only walk out the door in despair.
Losing face is not important. What is important is where Sister Shaoyao went. The most worrying thing is that no one is seen alive and no body is seen dead.
“Where should we go to find Sister Shaoyao?” I asked Yi Ba.
"Didn't you see Sister Shaoyao before she entered Gumanzhai? Then you should have seen her face." Yi Ba frowned and said, "There is nothing else now. The only solution is to look at you, Brother Chuyi. Recall her face at that time and see if you can tell anything. "
Not to mention leaving Xinsheng Pavilion, I can't look at it. phase. Even if I watch it, it’s a real person sitting in front of me and watching it! Relying on memories to read Sister Shaoyao's face, not to mention that it is much more difficult than a real person, I have no idea whether it is possible to read Sister Shaoyao's face accurately. At this point, apart from this move, I have no other choice but to bite the bullet.
