Chapter 1084 Half Crazy and Half Awake
"Can I escape?"
Huang Banxian tightened his loose Taoist robe, holding two bamboo sticks in his hands, wandering around the window in a dazed manner, looking at the closed door from time to time.
Half of the eavesdropping charm was burned for no reason while monitoring Ji Li next door, which shows that there is a serious supernatural leak there.
It was precisely because of this that Huang Banxian concluded that the ghost was beside Ji Li and called Mei Sheng.
When Wei Guang analyzed the situation, Mei Sheng left the scene because he approached Huang Banxian, and the two reached some consensus in this room.
Of course, these consensuses are not directly related to monitoring Ji Li.
Mei Sheng was going to find her employer. She was worried that Ji Li was acting secretly, causing them to miss some information, so she asked Huang Banxian to help him a little.
Judging from what happened later, Mei Sheng's small move affected the overall development of the situation.
But no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with Huang Banxian.
He was restless now. As the person closest to Ji Li, he was a little panicked.
Because in the next room, he heard continuous smashing sounds, including growls and angry scoldings from Ji Li.
Since the eavesdropping charm was destroyed, he could only hear a general outline, which was roughly some inexplicable "questions".
Ji Li was asking why a certain person kept pestering him... why he always appeared in front of him...
Huang Banxian was terrified when he heard this, because he knew very well that there was only Ji Li next door, and maybe there was a ghost.
But it is obvious that he is definitely not talking to a ghost, then he...
Huang Banxian thought of the rumor - Ji Li was crazy.
"If I leave now, let alone whether I can leave, I will only offend Ji Li.
In fact, it doesn’t matter if you offend him. The worst thing you can do is avoid him in the future, but Gu Xingjian..."
What he was most worried about was not Ji Li, but Gu Xingjian.
Although Gu Xingjian did not explicitly ask him to help, it was this vague attitude that made him highly suspicious.
He said to help as much as possible, but then said to stay away from Ji Li, which made Huang Banxian suspect that he had fallen into Gu Xingjian's situation.
Despite Huang Banxian's nominal respect for Gu Xingjian, in fact the two parties have been at odds for a long time. It is nothing more than the constraints of strength and branch restrictions, leading to the current peaceful situation on the surface.
The shadow of a famous tree.
Gu Xingjian arranged for him to come in and let him make his own decision. This not only deepened Huang Banxian's scruples and made him dare not make decisions without authorization.
"Will I die here..."
Huang Banxian held two bamboo sticks. He now wanted to make a divination for himself to calculate good or bad luck.
But the restriction of counting others and not oneself made him quite constrained and very hesitant.
But time would not give him much time to think, and the silence around him suddenly woke him up.
Huang Banxian suddenly raised his head and listened quietly, but found that the next door had become very quiet at some point, as if all the ghosts had disappeared.
Ji Li, where have you gone?
Huang Banxian seemed to be electrified, and jumped onto the window sill in a flash, staring at the door.
The silence reached deathly silence, and the sound of swallowing was harsh. In the past, Huang Banxian was only afraid of Gu Xingjian, but now there was another person.
The handle on the door slowly turned downward under his hot gaze, and the mechanical sound of the metal lock core was like a spring that was pressed to the extreme, giving it an extraordinarily suffocating feeling.
"Crunch... Crunch..."
Huang Banxian put his head out of the window and took a look, rolled his eyes and came back:
"Holy shit, this is the fucking seventh floor!"
For Gu Xingjian, he felt that it was a poisonous snake entrenched in the shadows. He could sense it but couldn't see his true body. He could only worry about when he would come out and bite him.
As for Ji Li, he seemed to be facing a schizophrenic patient. When he is not sick, he will give people a sense of indifference and alienation, with a cold and unapproachable demeanor. But once the disease occurs, there will be landslides and tsunamis, and he will raise his hands to kill people without thinking about the consequences.
Fortunately, the door was locked, but then an ax struck the door panel, and the faint ax blade shone silver behind the door.
The bang made Huang Banxian tremble, and he began to suspect that Ji Li was not crazy, but possessed by a ghost!
Bang bang bang...
Huang Banxian scolded his mother angrily, jumped down from the window sill, walked in circles, and muttered:
"It's too much to bully others, it's too much to bully others!"
He walked around the room, then picked up the ashtray from the table and walked toward the door menacingly.
As soon as he reached the door, before he could speak, the ax struck the door again, and a hand penetrated the door panel from outside and grabbed his collar.
Huang Banxian was in a daze for a moment, and was pulled out of the door by that hand.
He looked back at the broken door in horror, then slowly looked up at the person holding him.
Ji Li's left eye was scarlet and bleeding, and he was holding a sharp ax in his right hand. He looked down at him like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
"It's broken. Is this what Gu Xingjian meant?"
Huang Banxian's scalp was numb due to this look. He was still holding the ashtray but couldn't use any strength.
"This look...this look has...the power of a ghost?!"
Ji Li looked directly at Huang Banxian for a while, then suddenly dropped his ax on the ground, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and dialed a number.
Huang Banxian didn't dare to move because Ji Li's eyes were fixed on him and he really couldn't figure out what it meant.
"Mei Sheng, I'm taking Huang Banxian away."
"I don't care what you do, but no one in the fourth branch can die."
"At the very least, they cannot die before I see Zhang Huairen."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Li finally looked away from Huang Banxian. When he turned his head, a drop of blood and tears fell on the ground.
Huang Banxian held his breath and stood up from the ground little by little, stood beside him, hesitated for a while and then asked in a low voice:
"Ji Li, are you... crazy now? Or are you awake?"
When Ji Li heard this, he looked back at him again, with the same unclear intention.
Of course Huang Banxian wouldn't understand. He just thought Ji Li was half crazy and half awake.
But in Ji Li's field of vision, he saw Huang Banxian and a human face growing on Huang Banxian's chest...
It was a vague white face, with vague features and expressions, only the white skin representing death.
Ji Li sensed a kind of hatred and sadness from this face. Although he could not see the eyes clearly, he felt that they were looking at him.
Therefore, he was not looking at Huang Banxian before, but looking at this human face.
He couldn't answer Huang Banxian's question because he still didn't know whether he was crazy or awake.
The appearance of this human face made him suspect that it was all an illusion, but it did happen after he woke up that he opened the door.
In other words, after Ji Li cut open Yuan Kuan's body and heard the ghost's voice, he fell into a semi-mad state.
Even he doesn't know whether this state has been lifted now, but his brain is clearer than ever and he has a more intuitive ability to analyze the clues at hand.
The five internal organs and the five elements, the purpose of stealing the internal organs, those mysterious five elements talismans...
He is going to find the numerologist Zhang Huairen. Only by finding this person can he truly understand the murderer's purpose.
As for what Mei Sheng and Wei Guang are going to do, it doesn't matter at all.
Because Ji Li discovered that this time the ghost could actually influence evil spirits and drive him crazy...
