So many symbols.

It really was going to kill her.

Even the bronze mirror was burned.

The woman shrank her neck in the bronze mirror, her face full of fear.

"It's so hot and it hurts..." She cried out in pain, "Help me quickly."

Lu Zhaoling spread his hands and said, "I can't help you now. The talismans are all used up, and I don't have time to draw the cooling talismans. So, just bear with it."

Just bear with it for now.

I told her to stop making trouble a long time ago. Who told her to be disobedient?

Lu Zhaoling looked at the things scattered on the ground.

Just now, two boxes flew up and hit me several times, and were blasted by her talisman, and now they are scattered.

Next to a pile of broken wood, there were a few pieces of gold.

It seems that it was originally hidden at the bottom of the box, and it cannot be seen unless the box is smashed.

Lu Zhaoling walked over and picked up the gold bars that were as long as a few fingers.

"This isn't yours, is it?"

The woman looked at the gold bars, thought of something, and suddenly burst into tears.

She used to be a beautiful woman, but now she is crying like a baby.

"At first, Duan Lang sent me a few boxes of worthless things and told me to live a good life alone. I thought he just gave me those few things to get rid of me, but I didn't expect that there was gold hidden in the box!"

"Did I blame Duan Lang wrongly? But why didn't he tell me!"

Well, it seems that there was some grudge or hatred in the past.

But that was decades ago.

What a pity! It seems that this woman never found these gold bars until her death, so she never used them.

"Since this is yours, I will keep it for you first. Tomorrow we will see how many people you have killed and whether there is any karma you need to pay back. If so, you can use this gold to pay back half of it."

If someone really was killed, the gold alone would definitely not be enough, but being able to return half of it would at least be a little psychological comfort to the living.

"That was given to me by Duan Lang, you have to return it to me..." the woman screamed again.

Lu Zhaoling snorted.

"Give it back to you?" She raised her hand as if to bomb again.

"Here you go, here you go!" The woman hugged her head and shouted.

Xiaoyu downstairs patted the stairs, anxiously wanting to shout but not daring to.

The people outside are already here.

"Wait here."

Lu Zhaoling grabbed a piece of cloth and draped it over her head and body, then grabbed another piece and hurried downstairs.

"Someone is coming in!"

Xiaoyu was relieved to see her coming down, but was stunned again when he saw her current appearance.

"If we don't let people see us clearly, who knows if they have any accomplices? If they recognize you and come to seek revenge, you'll be finished."

She stuffed a piece of cloth into his hand, and Xiaoyu quickly wrapped himself up.

Lu Zhaoling pulled him, and the two hid in the dark behind the stairs. She stretched out her hand and drew a breath-suppressing talisman in front of her, signaling Xiaoyu not to make a sound.

Just as I finished, someone came in carrying something.

Lu Zhaoling's heart skipped a beat when he saw someone coming in.

The people who came in were not surprised to see the bodies outside? Did they know that people would die here, or were they the ones who killed the people?

Four people came in. After two of them came in, they looked around and then waved to let the next two people in.

The people behind came in, carrying a person, and after carrying the person in, they threw the person to the ground in a very rude manner.

There was a bang.

"Why is the body still there this time?" one of them asked.

The little fish trembled, but tried hard to stay still.

"A lot of people have come to the city. Will it have any impact?"

"What effect can it have? Is it a special person who can prevent the ghost energy from destroying the corpse?"

"Never mind, the master said that a few more people need to die recently, so we just need to do our work and stop asking so many questions."

"Yes, let's go out then."

One of them suddenly stopped and looked towards the stairs.

"When we came here just now, there seemed to be some movement up there. You all heard it, and there was also a fire. Shouldn't we go up and take a look?"

The three of them were silent for a moment, their breathing a little tight.

"The master told us not to go upstairs casually. Have you forgotten? Although there was movement and fire, it's gone now."

"Yeah, that's fine now. I don't dare go up there."

"Someone has said before that there was movement up there. Maybe it's normal? Let's just ignore it and go."

After talking for a while, the few of them quickly retreated.

Lu Zhaoling moved her hand, and a small paper crane flew out and followed them.

She waited until the footsteps faded away before she came out from the darkness.

The little fish quickly followed.

"Someone is missing in the city. Is it them who did it? Is this another person they captured?"

Xiaoyu asked nervously, and glanced at the direction of the stairs again, subconsciously moving closer to Lu Zhaoling. "The one above..."

Lu Zhaoling had already reached out and felt the breath of the man on the ground, and he was still breathing.

"You wait."

She ran upstairs again, and soon found the bronze mirror and candle and took them down.

When Xiaoyu saw her holding the bronze mirror, her face changed.

Where is the person in the mirror?

He subconsciously leaned over to take a look, but as soon as he got closer, the face in the mirror suddenly moved closer to him.

"what!"

The little fish was frightened again.

Lu Zhaoling was speechless.

Scared and curious?

"Why could you bring me down?" the woman in the mirror asked in shock when she saw herself coming down.

She could only stay on the upper floor, and she couldn't remember how many years she had been trapped there.

Lu Zhaoling was too lazy to answer her.

"It seems that you didn't kill the two people outside. This person who was thrown in shouldn't be sent here for you to kill, right?"

She had misunderstood the woman in the mirror before.

"I just try to hook their souls. Some are easy to hook, some are hard to hook. But I can never suck the souls out, and they are snatched away by the ghost energy pool below."

The woman is also very irritable.

"Even if I wasn't here, they would definitely die if they were sent here."

She had initially tried to make some noise to scare away the people thrown here and let them escape, but she only succeeded once.

After one person escaped, the people who were sent here afterwards were basically half-dead or unconscious.

Can't get away even if I run.

Later, she could no longer care about it because she had gradually transformed into an evil ghost.

The pool of ghost energy here will affect her.

Lu Zhaoling brought the candlelight in front of the man on the ground.

He was a man in his thirties who dressed rather luxuriously.

After a closer look, I found that he was knocked unconscious.

"Get him up and take him out," she said.

Xiaoyu pointed at himself?

He can't carry it.

But the woman in the mirror spoke up, "Can I still leave this building?"

So he wanted this ghost to take him out? Xiaoyu was dumbfounded.

"You can only be out for a quarter of an hour. If you really want to get out, I'll have to remove the Soul Locking Nail tomorrow." Lu Zhaoling said, "I just need you for a while."
