After a while, the cold Nightmare Object turned into a warm Demon Suppressing Coin.
After putting a few pieces of Demon Suppressing Coin's golden smoke into his bag, Yue Wen turned around, picked up the child on the ground, and sorted out the meridians on his body with Gang Qi.
Yangyang's mother was a little nervous and asked with some fear, "Yangyang... are you okay?"
"Don't worry, it's just a parasitic nightmare that has been possessing it for a while. In fact, if Supervision Bureau was reported earlier, they should have more professional means to solve it." Yue Wen said to Yangyang's mother, "Being entangled by a parasitic nightmare, ordinary people will lose some vitality. He also ate a lot of raw meat, so his stomach and intestines may be uncomfortable, but it's nothing serious."
"No... it's fine." Yangyang's mother nodded tremblingly.
Zhao Xing'er smiled and said, "You don't have to be afraid, the evil spirits have been completely eliminated!"
"Ah." Yangyang's mother nodded again, her expression still filled with unconcealable fear.
Obviously, she was afraid of more than just evil spirits.
After all, Yue Wen is more understanding of human nature than Xing'er. He guessed that the behavior of the two of them in eliminating evil spirits might have been a little too extreme, which made her fearful. So he comforted her in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, Mother Yangyang, we are from Yue's Cultivation Firm. We have been entrusted to come to your place to investigate the situation and are specifically responsible for eliminating evil spirits."
"Agency? Commission?" Yangyang's mother heard the keyword and immediately said, "You want money, right? I'll give you money, just don't hurt me and Yangyang." Yue Wen:..."
"You don't have to be so polite." Zhao Xing'er waved his hand, "Let's buy some delicious food for the child. He really needs some food now."
After sitting down and chatting slowly for a while, Yangyang's mother found that the two young men were not very anthropomorphic when fighting evil spirits, but at other times they looked quite human, so she gradually let down her guard and talked about her own experience.
It turned out that three nights ago, Guo Yangyang suddenly became very strange when she returned home. She was asked to cut fresh and bloody raw meat and bones, and she also said some strange words.
At first she thought the child was under too much pressure to study and had mental problems, and she was worried about whether he would be able to study in the future. Later she found out that it was not that serious - he was just possessed by Nightmare Object.
The possessed Nightmare Object did not allow her to inform others, and threatened that as long as someone from the Supervision Bureau came, it would immediately take Guo Yangyang to death. Yangyang's mother was coerced by it, so she had to take sick leave for Guo Yangyang and kept feeding it with raw flesh and bones.
I thought it would leave when it was full, but who knew it would go even further and even eat human flesh over time.
Until Yue Wen came to investigate the situation.
"Next time if there is any abnormal situation, please find a professional practitioner to deal with it as soon as possible." Yue Wen reminded him seriously after listening.
The spiritual power of this parasitic nightmare is actually not very strong. It can only attach itself to the bodies of some old people and children, and use these weak bodies to absorb blood food. If it eats enough flesh and blood, its spiritual power will increase, and it will become more difficult to deal with.
If Yue Wen and the others hadn't come, then Yangyang's mother would most likely have suffered at the hands of this Nightmare Object, both mother and child.
"I remember." Yangyang's mother nodded and said, "Thank you very much this time."
"However, this Nightmare Object's violent aura is surprisingly strong, and it may have some origins." Yue Wen thought again, "I was in a hurry to kill it just now, and I forgot to check where it came from."
"Indeed." Zhao Xing'er also said, "The situation is critical, so we didn't take care of this."
"Looking at how stubborn it is, it probably won't cooperate honestly." Yue Wen said.
"Yeah." Zhao Xing'er nodded.
"Huh." Yangyang's mother smiled awkwardly and agreed with their words.
But I felt a little confused inside.
In a hurry?
Why did I watch you charge it for most of the day?
Isn't it because I forgot about the power supply?
Besides, why is it resisting? Is it just resisting if it doesn't die?
But she didn't dare to question the two evil stars, so she could only whisper, "It said that it had been sealed in a hard and cold place for more than ten years, but it didn't say much about its origin."
"Where did Guo Yangyang come into contact with it?" Yue Wen suddenly asked.
"Yangyang is an honest child. He goes to school every day when he leaves home. He never goes out to make mischief. If he comes into contact with Nightmare Object, it must be in school." Yangyang's mother said firmly.
"Is that so?" Yue Wen said, "How about you call his good brother Zhang Xiaozhuang and ask. Maybe he knows what Yangyang was exposed to that day."
"Okay."
Yangyang's mother knew Zhang Xiaozhuang's parents, and they usually communicated with each other about their children, so they got up and called Zhang Xiaozhuang's family. After chatting for a few minutes, she hung up the phone expressionlessly, "Xiao Zhuang said that Yangyang knocked over a sculpture when he skipped school that day and set fire to the haunted house."
The haunted house Zhang Xiaozhuang mentioned was an abandoned attic not far from the Second Elementary School in the East District.
The original owner of the attic didn't know what accident happened, and he hadn't taken care of the small building for many years. Sometimes people passing by after dark would often hear crying coming from inside.
Supervision Bureau once received a report and sent people to inspect it, but no traces of evil activities were found in the house. No one has dealt with the attic, so it was left here.
A few days ago, when the sky was dark and bright, Xiaomei from my class heard the sound of a ghost again when she was passing by here. She was so frightened that she ran to the class crying. Guo Yangyang liked Xiaomei, so he asked Zhang Xiaozhuang for advice. Several good brothers put it together and decided not to do anything, and they burned the haunted house.
But they were children after all, so they were frightened when they walked into the house. The light inside was dark. Guo Yangyang knocked something over as soon as he entered the door. With a thud, all the children were so frightened that they ran out on the spot.
Zhang Xiaozhuang vaguely saw that the thing seemed to be a strange sculpture.
After listening to his story, Yangyang's mother's eyes were on fire.
Looking at Guo Yangyang lying on the bed, Yue Wen silently paused in his heart. This child may soon learn that having an upper body upper body is not the most terrifying thing in the world.
Mom is the boss.
Seeing that the atmosphere around them was getting more and more depressing, Yue Wen and Zhao Xing'er also said goodbye at the right time, "We'll leave first. You guys go to the hospital to deal with your wounds. You don't have to worry about Nightmare Object's matter for the time being. We will investigate."
"Thank you both." Yangyang's mother apologized sincerely, and then glanced at Guo Yangyang, who was sleeping soundly, "I will deal with him well." The two hurriedly ran downstairs, rode on the electric donkey, and went straight to the "haunted house" described by Zhang Xiaozhuang.
Sure enough, I found a small European-style attic near the Second Primary School in the East District. It seemed that the previous owner was indeed wealthy, and the decoration of the entire attic exuded a gorgeous flavor. Now that it has deteriorated, it is even more contrasting.
There should be no obvious evil spirits here. Yue Wen and the two jumped over the wall directly. If there were any obvious evil spirits, Supervision Bureau's inspection could not have missed it.
Sure enough, until I opened the door on the first floor, there was no evil smell.
The heavy curtains covered with dust and cobwebs in the hall are always closed, resulting in no light in the room. Standing on the front porch and looking in, the dark living room is like a big mouth that preys on people.
No wonder the children don't dare to go in here.
In the passage from the front porch to the living room, there is a shoe cabinet. There should have been something on it, because there is a circular space there that is free of dust.
On the ground beside it, there was a dark object. After looking carefully, it turned out that it seemed to be a brown-black tree root, carved into a shape similar to a human face.
"This is... a root carving?" Yue Wen recognized it at a glance.
There was a crack on the forehead of the human-faced root sculpture. He stepped forward and picked up the root sculpture.
"There are very hidden formation patterns on the surface of this sculpture. It has been aged for a long time and is not very strong. It was damaged after being dropped." Yue Wen analyzed. "At that time, Guo Yangyang must have been running away in a hurry and bumped into the shoe cabinet, sealing it Nightmare Object's root sculpture broke and it attracted the possession of the parasitic nightmare." "That should be it." Zhao Xing'er agreed with this inference, "But who made this root sculpture? Why should Nightmare Object be sealed in the root sculpture? This method is really a bit evil."
"Look again."
Yue Wen put down the root carvings for the time being, and checked upstairs and downstairs with Zhao Xing'er. There was nothing suspicious in the attic. It had been abandoned for so many years, and everything of value had been stolen.
It is estimated that this sculpture was not in good condition, so it was not moved away.
"Maybe it's just an ornament that the original owner got by chance." Zhao Xing'er finally said, "It might be a bit troublesome to check the origin."
"The method of sealing Nightmare Object in the root carving is not common, and this formation pattern does not look like the right way." Yue Wen thought for a moment, "Maybe we can inquire about it in the evil cultivator circle."
As soon as he thought about this, he called Elder Gongsun.
"Master Wen!"
The phone only rang once, and Gongsun Yan picked up the phone with a warm and flattering tone.
"Elder Gongsun, why are you so different?" Yue Wen said, "Didn't you just call me brother?"
"How dare I, helmsman. You value love and righteousness and don't care about this with me, but I, the old guy, have to sort out priorities." Gongsun Yan said. Yue Wen smiled and said, "There is no need to talk about this between us. I have something to ask you."
"You ask!" Gongsun Yan said immediately.
"In our Jiang City evil cultivator circle, is there anyone who likes to do root carving?" Yue Wen asked.
"Hiss." Gongsun Yan suddenly made a gasping sound.
Yue Wen noticed something was wrong, "What's wrong?"
Gongsun Yan seemed to be silent for a moment, then said, "Master, have you already started checking Soul Shepherd Sect?"
Soul Shepherd Sect?
Yue Wen didn't know what he meant by saying this, so he didn't reveal the information he had in hand. He just replied, "What do you know? Tell me in detail." Gongsun Yan smiled weakly, "In fact, the Lord of Heaven said that the traitor Ah Hei Yan had teamed up with Dai Muchun to plot against him. When I was young, I had expected that this day would come. Sooner or later, we Flame Ghost Hall and Soul Shepherd Sect would have a battle. But I really didn't want to bring it up. After all, who would want to take the initiative to provoke people from the Soul Shepherd Sect? The methods of those people, even among our evil cultivators, are notoriously ruthless..."
He talked a little casually for a while, and Yue Wen listened quietly.
The reason why I keep Gongsun Yan is because the old guy has been in River City Flame Ghost Hall for so many years and is familiar with a lot of information in the circle, and it really comes in handy now.
Give him a keyword, and he actually reveals the man behind it.
After a while, Gongsun Yan said again, "As far as I know, there is indeed a disciple of the Soul Shepherd Sect in our Jiang City, and he is also the direct disciple of Dai Muchun, named Duanmu Lei. He We opened an art gallery over there at City Seven. We had a good relationship before, and I even went shopping there... Don't tell the current hall master this! I will definitely be incompatible with the bastard Soul Shepherd Sect in the future! Master Wen, are you going to start a war?"
You mean...
Is there an entire art museum with the root carving Nightmare Object sealed like this?
Yue Wen pondered for a moment and said, "Send me the address and information, and you don't need to interfere with anything else."
"Duanmu Lei is also a veteran evil cultivator. Wen Duo wants to deal with him on his own?" Gongsun Yan seemed a little surprised, but he immediately reacted and said, "Oh! The master of the hall will gather all the major branch helms and return soon. If you know that you have wiped out Soul Shepherd Sect's stronghold first, I will definitely be very happy. Of course I can't interfere with this kind of credit."
"As expected of Captain Wen, he always wants to be in front of me in everything.
