Chapter 336 Mess
Chapter 336 Mess
"Dark Shadow?"
Chi Jiujiu muttered to herself as she casually threw one of the gifts from the contract-making ceremony - the "Soul-Protecting Jade Pendant" - back into the conch house.
The criminal investigators have not yet recovered from the scene that has just overturned their cognition.
They stood beside the tree in amazement.
"Hu...Fu..."
The cold wind made the criminal investigators shiver, and their brains also recovered.
"Ms. Gong, that shadow just now...is it really the soul of the deceased?" one of them asked.
If they saw this thing late at night, they would probably be scared to death.
"That's right." Chi Jiujiu said calmly.
After the phantom that looked like the deceased disappeared.
The criminal investigation captain looked at one of his colleagues and asked, "Did you record all the videos?"
"Captain, I recorded it...but when I played it back, I could only see the surrounding scenery, and the souls of the deceased did not appear."
Shen Mojin spoke in a low voice.
"Ordinary objects cannot record soul images. Now we can be sure that the murderer is not an ordinary human."
But...a ghost from another world.
Then, Shen Mojin stretched out his hand and waved his sleeves towards several large trees, and the gloomy wind stopped instantly.
Chi Jiujiu, "Ajin, these trees are a little strange.
"The Yin Qi just now came from the formation, right? Is it because the soul was trapped in the soul-binding formation that it was not devoured?"
She didn't know much about the formation, but she was good at guessing and reasoning.
When she had spent money to buy a formation for Shen Mojin, she had the impression that there was a formation called the Soul Binding Formation, which could imprison a person's soul.
Shen Mojin, "It's not a soul-binding formation, but a soul-nourishing formation. It's just that the ghosts are nurturing the souls of ordinary people in the formation and are not in a hurry to devour them. This is a bit strange."
Chi Jiujiu asked doubtfully, "Wait until they are fattened before eating them?"
Shen Mojin smiled faintly and shook his head, "It's difficult for ordinary people's souls to be raised to the level of being eaten by ghosts, and they don't have that much patience."
Chi Jiujiu asked, “Since we are nurturing the soul, why do we need to destroy it?
The wind that makes the souls of the dead disappear...isn't this a contradiction?"
Shen Mojin glanced at the spot where the corpse lay. After a moment, he said with certainty, "When the deceased was killed by a ghost, a strange person passed by here.
After the stranger caught the ghost, he set up a soul-raising formation, threw the deceased's soul into the formation, and left. "
He pointed to a large tree root five meters away from where the body lay.
He motioned Chi Jiujiu and the investigators to look over there.
Shen Mojin, "There is black air entangled in the hollow of the tree roots. This is the curse mark left by ghosts and is also the source of the disappearance of the souls of the deceased.
The stranger who was just passing by seemed to be in a hurry and didn't notice it. "
Chi Jiujiu sighed, "That gloomy wind didn't come from the formation, it turned out to be a curse from a ghost...
So, who is the strange person who raises the soul?
If we find this person, we will have more clues.”
Shen Mojin and Chi Jiujiu were talking as if no one was around, and the criminal investigation personnel were recording their conversation with a recorder.
Chi Jiujiu, "So the soul summoned just now caused the soul of the deceased to dissipate?"
Shen Mojin said calmly, "The curse has seeped into the formation. If it is not summoned out, the souls of the deceased will dissipate faster."
Since that strange man wanted to save the soul, why didn't he take the soul away?
It's because my cultivation is not good enough, that's not right——
It is impossible to capture ghosts with low cultivation level, but if the cultivation level is high, why would he allow the curse to remain here and harm souls?
Is it really so rushed that there isn't even a second left?
Did he leave the formation here and wait until he was done before returning to take the soul away? Otherwise, why would he spend his divine power to set up the soul-nourishing formation?
Just when Shen Mojin's thoughts were in a tangled mess.
A figure that the couple was not expecting appeared on the side of the road.
"Mom, Dad." Suddenly, Chi Jiujiu heard a cold and indifferent voice coming from the edge of the road.
Everyone turned their heads to look at the newcomer.
Chi Jiujiu turned around and saw Shen Yan, who was thin and about the same height as Shen Mojin. He had been standing on the side of the road without her noticing.
Shen Yan's face was disguised, and it was not obvious whether his face was rosy or not.
"Yanbao, why are you here? Why don't you stay at home and have a good rest?" Chi Jiujiu's tone was full of concern.
When I went out to apply for my ID card two days ago, my eldest son was still weak.
“Xiaoyan, what are you doing...?” Shen Mojin also asked in confusion.
Criminal investigators: !!! I saw the copy of the father and son. Ms. Gong actually became a mother. Is she a stepmother?
The criminal investigation personnel quickly came back to their senses and shifted their focus to the case.
Chen Yan smiled and said to Chi Jiujiu, "I also saw the morning news, so I wanted to come over to Huaxi Road to see what was going on."
His phoenix eyes swept across the place where the corpses lay and the depression at the roots of the big tree.
The soul-nourishing formation disappeared?
Once the soul dissipates, the soul-nourishing formation will dissipate as well.
Unable to detect the presence of souls around him, Shen Yan frowned and asked Shen Mojin via telepathy:
"Dad, when you came, did you see the spirits of the deceased?"
Shen Mojin said simply, "It encountered a curse and it dissipated."
Shen Yan's expression suddenly changed, "Mom, I'm going back, you guys are busy."
Having said that, Shen Yan left the scene very quickly.
He found a hidden corner, took off the jade ring and activated the black pattern...
A green light flashed by, and Shen Yan had already left Nancheng.
"Wuwang, the trouble you have caused is not limited to this one cause and effect."
"You'd better clean up this mess quickly."
"I can only help you deal with the wandering souls in this world."
Thousands of kilometers away from Nancheng, in Kyoto, a scene similar to that in Nancheng is taking place on the suburban highway of Rouqing District.
However, the police officers here who were assisting in the investigation did not include Chi Jiujiu.
Shen Yan explored it with his spiritual sense.
The soul-nurturing formation is still there, and so are the innocent souls inside.
His frown relaxed slightly, "Fortunately, the innocent souls here have not dissipated, otherwise the underworld would have another sin."
Shen Yan narrowed his eyes and instantly flashed in front of the formation beside the road.
Then he took out a emerald green bead and put the fragile soul in the array into it.
"This kind of soul cannot be placed in the underworld to be reincarnated, we can only raise it first." Shen Yan sighed in his heart, he could not put the soul into the underworld.
Otherwise, it will only breed evil spirits.
The underworld is in chaos.
Wuwang hurriedly told him last night that the two Yama Kings were seriously injured, and Wuwang was currently heading to various realms to capture the escaped evil spirits and monsters.
After inhaling the soul, Shen Yan put away the beads.
Unnoticed by the police, he continued on to the next crime scene reported in the news.
"Did you feel a cool breeze just now?"
City B is 3,000 kilometers away from Beijing.
Shen Yan followed suit and put the innocent souls in the soul-raising array into the beads.
It takes half an hour.
Chen Yan has managed to properly put the souls of the deceased in the beads as reported in the news.
Of course, this does not include the souls that dissipated in Nancheng.
Shen Yan's eyes were dark, "There are far more ghosts wandering around the world than these, so I'll have to be busy for a while."
