Chapter 79 Mysterious Man

"There are eight souls here." Zhou Qi stared at the mirror for a while, and a sly smile appeared on his once serious face, "I said, young master, you are really good! I haven't done it for several years. It’s about the matter, you guys will give me back eight of them!”

Shao Jing frowned: "No? No matter what, I'll find a way, don't force it."

Zhou Qi moved his ten fingers: "It's not bad. Although there are eight of them, they are all baby ghosts, and the resentment is not that great, and they can withstand it."

Mai Mai remembered what Shao Jing said about inviting the upper body of ghosts to squeeze away the original soul, and felt worried: "Can't invite them one by one?"

Zhou Qi chuckled: "How can you be so obedient and still line up? Let's go together, it's okay."

Shao Jing didn't say anything, just took out a stack of talisman papers, and pasted them in a circle around the table and chairs in the living room: "Don't worry, even if something happens, I can drag you back."

Zhou Qi bent down to look at the talisman paper, surprised and delighted: "Young master, can you draw the soul-restraining talisman?"

Shao Jing coughed dryly: "...Detention is not enough... But it is enough to trap the soul." He glanced at Ye Shunshun who was standing aside like a knife, "Give me some peace! Anyone who has evil intentions- -" He shook his hand, a piece of talisman paper ignited between his fingers, and with a click, a small lightning flashed.Before Mai Mai had time to admire, there was a burnt hole in the sofa towel next to her.It was newly bought, and it has not been shopped for a few days!Mai Mai couldn't help but feel a little pain, and quietly changed her admiring expression to roll her eyes.

Shao Jing didn't expect to burn the sofa towel with a wave of his hand, so he turned his head and pointed at Ye Shunshun in embarrassment: "Go to the circle!"

Ye Shunshun was already dizzy from the shock of Shao Jing's flashing hand. He didn't even dare to say that he was hungry, so he walked into the circle honestly and sat down on a chair.Zhou Qi looked at the hole on the sofa and smiled: "Yes, I have taken out the Five Thunder Talismans, so why should I be afraid?"

The table in the center of the talisman circle was covered with white paper, and a 2B pencil was placed on it.Zhou Qi sat down on the chair in front of the table, picked up the pencil and held it in his hand, put away the smile on his face, read a few words softly, and closed his eyes.

Mai Mai watched nervously. After a while, he found a few wisps of light gray mist floating from Ye Shunshun's abdomen. The color was so light that it was almost invisible, but when it was stretched out, it looked like a baby, with hands and feet. One by one they floated towards Zhou Qi and melted in from the top of his head.

After all the black shadows entered his body, Zhou Qi opened his eyes.But Xiaomai felt that he was more like falling asleep now - except that his eyes were open, his expression was completely as if he was asleep.Shao Jing asked slowly: "Why did you parasitize Ye Shunshun?" His voice was low, as if he was afraid of waking Zhou Qi up.

Zhou Qi's hand holding the pen moved on the paper, and Mai Mai stretched his neck, seeing that it was a word for "escape".Shao Jing frowned: "Run for what?" It is said that one mountain cannot contain two tigers, and one body cannot accommodate more than one soul for a long time.So if there are baby ghosts who want to use Ye Shunshun's stomach to recover, it is impossible to squeeze eight of them in at once!Even these souls themselves have to fight, and they will not coexist peacefully, because if everyone coexists, it is impossible for Ye Shunshun's child to survive.

When Shao Jing asked, Zhou Qi's body suddenly trembled, and a look of fear appeared on his face. At the same time, both hands moved, as if several people were pulling left and right, and the tip of the pen started to scratch meaninglessly.Shao Jing said in a deep voice: "Don't argue, answer slowly! As long as you haven't done anything bad, I will keep you safe."

Zhou Qi gradually calmed down, holding a pen in his right hand and scratching on the paper. After a while, he stopped the pen, and a pattern composed of countless swirl-shaped lines appeared on the paper, which looked like a black hole at first glance.The combination of those lines is very ingenious. After watching for a long time, I feel that the black hole is spinning, as if trying to suck people in.Shao Jing frowned even tighter: "Is it a dark road?" Zhou Qi immediately drew a few big crosses on the paper, so much force that the paper was cut, showing that he was very firm and eager to deny it.

Shao Jing thought for a while: "What about the other souls? Are they all swallowed by this black hole?" Zhou Qi immediately wrote a big "Yes".

Mai Mai and Shao Jing glanced at each other.This is already very clear, that day there was a black hole devouring and absorbing these baby ghosts in the clinic, that's why the pregnant woman's fetus was taken out of its soul; and these eight baby ghosts escaped into Ye Shunshun's body, probably because Ye Shunshun felt it first. The baby ghosts survived only when the shock came out first.

Shao Jing thought for a while: "Have you seen how this black hole appeared?"

Zhou Qi thought for a while, then picked up the brush and began to draw again.This time he drew one after another, eight pictures before he stopped.Mai Mai stretched her head to look, and saw that the drawings on the paper were all people, which seemed to be the situation in the clinic.Zhou Qi's sketching skills are surprisingly strong, with only a few strokes, but the paintings are lifelike, but it's hard to tell anything from these few paintings, because there are at least three or four people in each painting, and most of them are from the back and side , and it cannot be seen that these people have any connection with black holes.

Shao Jing glanced at it for a while, but couldn't see anything for a while, but the infant ghost had been on Zhou Qi's body for a long time, and Zhou Qi's damage would be too great, so he could only temporarily put these paintings aside : "What other clues can you provide?"

Zhou Qi sat still.Shao Jing nodded: "Alright then, you've been procrastinating in Yangjian for too long, I'll send you on your way."

An expression of surprise and disbelief suddenly appeared on Zhou Qi's face. Shao Jing said lightly, "Don't worry, I will deliver it to you, and I will do it." He stepped into the talisman circle and pressed Zhou Qi On the top of the head, the lips moved slightly, muttering something in a low voice.

Mai Mai's eyes widened, and he vaguely saw some golden soft light floating on Shao Jing's hands, and when he looked carefully, he could find that they were actually some golden characters, but they were too small to make out what the words were.Those characters flowed on his hands, and a gray baby ghost slowly floated above Zhou Qi's head, but as soon as it floated up, it was surrounded by golden light, from gray to white, and finally disappeared in the circle of light.Until the last soul disappeared, Zhou Qi's body shook, and he slowly opened his eyes, with a tired face on his face: "All gone?"

Shao Jing withdrew his hand: "Send it away."

Zhou Qi moved his body, slightly surprised: "Master, you, have you used the Buddha's power? Are you really superseded?"

Shao Jing was a little displeased: "What does it mean to have truly transcended?"

Zhou Qi chuckled: "That's not it, isn't that afraid that you will miss it..."

"Pfft——" Although Xiaomai was still thinking about the black hole, she couldn't help laughing. Now Shao Jing's face turned darker, and he gave Ye Shunshun an angry look: "You can go."

Ye Shunshun didn't know what happened from the beginning to the end.She just sat there, and then watched the man in front of the table write and draw like a sleepwalker, and the other kept asking him some inexplicable questions, and then it seemed that she saw a faint golden light on the man's hand, and finally It's over... The only feeling—well, it seems that the room suddenly became hot, and she really wanted to take off the long-sleeved uniform she was wearing.

"Still leaving?" Shao Jing frowned, his eyes turned cold.To be honest, he didn't like Ye Shunshun this woman very much.Women have the right not to have children, but they do not have the right to abort after being pregnant casually. This is not only respect for life, but also disrespect for themselves.

Mai Mai was a little sympathetic: "It's already two o'clock in the morning, so it's not safe..." Of course he doesn't like Ye Shunshun, but at this time, let a woman go back to Laoshan by herself...the bus is gone.

Shao Jing frowned: "Are you still letting her sleep at home?"

"Anyway, it's almost dawn, let her stay--let her stay in the kitchen for a while?" Mai Mai wanted to talk about the study room, but seeing Shao Jing's displeased eyes, she abruptly changed her words.

Ye Shunshun stood up in a daze, and Mai Mai comforted her: "We have solved your problem, and you will be fine from now on."

Shao Jing snorted: "Not necessarily. It's resolved this time, but it's hard to guarantee the next time."

Mai Mai sighed: "If you don't want a child, be careful not to conceive it, and if you do, don't abandon it easily. In short - you can do it yourself. You move this chair to the kitchen, and you can leave after dawn .”

After sending Ye Shunshun to the kitchen, the three picked up the painting on the table to look at.Zhou Qi flipped through it for a while: "Is this what I drew?"

"Yeah." Mai Mai looked at him admiringly, "I can't tell you can draw."

Zhou Qi smiled: "This is an essential skill for advanced psychics."

Mai Mai thought for a while: "Couldn't it be enough if you invite the soul on your upper body to be able to draw?"

Zhou Qi laughed: "Of course there are such things, but you have to know that others will not be as good as yourself, not to mention if the soul of the upper body can't draw? I can draw, and I can see what they see or what they want to express better Express it clearly.” He picked up the painting and looked at it for a while, then sighed softly, “I don’t like painting, but I have been painting for 20 years.”

"You are amazing." Mai said solemnly, "Shao Jing should learn from you."

Zhou Qi's smile froze on his face before he even opened it: "Maizi, are you trying to harm me?"

Shao Jing frowned in displeasure, but held back his anger, and just threw the paper back on the table: "There are too many people here, and there is no problem."

Zhou Qi quietly wiped off his sweat: "This--this should be the people who went in and out of the clinic that day that those baby ghosts saw, but they may not be able to see anything."

Mai Mai didn't feel that he had said something wrong. In terms of being willing to take responsibility, what Shao Jing had done in the past was not satisfactory.Of course he knows why Shao Jing is doing this, and he also knows that Shao Jing is actually responsible for the mistakes he made in his previous life, but he only cares about his previous life, so he ignores this life, especially as a child of an aristocratic family, since you After enjoying the resources of the aristocratic family, it is natural to assume corresponding responsibilities.But Shao Jing is like this, even if he knows he is wrong, you can only let him correct it himself, you must not say it in person.Fortunately, Maimai is not worried, he has figured out Shao Jing's temper now - he is going to be angry, don't try to justify it when he is angry, just let him get angry there, after a while you can go along with it , everything is OK!So now Xiaomai just looked at those paintings with a dull head. After watching for more than ten minutes, he finally saw some clues: "Look at this person!"

On the drawing paper, half of a person's face was exposed behind the two patients who were queuing to pay the fee. Zhou Qi slightly deepened the lines of this person, making him stand out a little on the paper.

Zhou Qi took the paper and looked at it carefully for a while: "It seems to be to highlight this person--"

Mai Mai pulled another piece of paper: "Look, is this the same person?" On this piece of paper was a man holding a pregnant woman on his arm, and there was half a figure beside them, just a profile.

Zhou Qi looked at it carefully and compared it for a long time: "It's a bit similar. These bone lines should be the same person. Maizi, you have good eyesight!"

"No, no—" Mai Mai shook her hands awkwardly, "I'm looking at this—" There is a black spot on the collar corner of the person's shirt in these two paintings.It's not round, it looks like it has edges and corners, so Xiaomai thinks it's not random.According to the proportion of the person in the painting, this black spot should be the size of an apricot pit, so it doesn't look like a stain on clothes.

"I think this thing is like a badge or something."

Zhou Qi put the two pieces of paper together and compared them carefully for a while, and Shao Jing flipped through the rest of the paper for a while: "There are at least six paintings with this black spot."

This meant that this person appeared on at least six sheets of paper, and the black dots on each of the drawings were out of the corners, so it was definitely not a scribble.Zhou Qi looked at the remaining two pieces of paper carefully for a while, and said with certainty: "There are eight pieces of paper, but the collars of these two pieces are not exposed."

Mai looked at the remaining two sheets of paper in confusion: "There is no head on this paper—"

Zhou Qi smiled: "Did you know that to draw a portrait, you must first understand the bones? The distribution of muscles and the posture of a person all depend on the position and shape of the bones. If you don't understand the internal bones, you will not be able to draw a reasonable shape. Come on. Although this piece of paper is just a body, it should be this person!"

Shao Jing narrowed his eyes slightly: "Can you restore this person's face?"

Zhou Qi put all eight pieces of paper together, looked at them for a while and nodded: "Probably."

Zhou Qi was painting, and Mai Mai went into the kitchen to get some supper, because Ye Shunshun just sat in the kitchen and took a nap, so I am sorry not to share with her.By the time he brought it out, Zhou Qi had already drawn more than half of it, but the face looked ordinary, and there was really nothing special about it.

Shao Jing stood by the window and pondered, Mai Mai brought his supper over: "Are you still angry?" Could it be that he still harbors resentment for that sentence just now?

Shao Jing was taken aback for a moment, then straightened his face.Mai Mai handed the sandwich to his mouth: "Don't be angry, you have improved a lot now."

Shao Jing was even more unhappy, but it was hard to say anything, because Mai Mai hadn't said anything wrong.Seeing his aggrieved expression, Mai Mai hurriedly moved the sandwich closer: "I've been busy all night, aren't you hungry? I bought the ham here the day before yesterday. Don't you like French ham? Try it, is it delicious?" ?”

Shao Jing's face softened, and he took a bite of his hand: "It's okay."

Mai Mai heaved a sigh of relief, stuffed the sandwich into his mouth and took a bite: "I think the person Zhou Qi painted looks so ordinary, so it's hard to find."

Shao Jing looked at the sandwich that had been bitten twice, his face looked better again, he lowered his head and took another bite: "You are right. It is not easy for someone who can suck all the souls out of the clinic, at least the people I know Among them, there is not much that can be done.”

Mai Mai pondered: "What do you think that thing on his collar looks like? I think Zhou Qi's drawing has edges and corners. What could it be?" What kind of image is it that can draw an angular black dot, "Could it be the pattern of the sun? Surrounded by rays to represent sunlight..."

Shao Jing raised his head and thought for a while: "It's not like, it looks like sharp corners..."

Mai Mai really couldn't think of any pattern with sharp horns: "It can't be barbed wire, haha." I felt like laughing dryly.

Shao Jing didn't comment, but just put his arm around his waist: "Don't meddle in this matter. This person is difficult to deal with. You are not in this line of work. Don't meddle indiscriminately."

"Didn't you say you would teach me Taoism?"

Shao Jing was silent for a while: "You...you are not suitable for learning Taoism."

"Why?" Mai Mai was not convinced, "I remember the Fushi last time, it seems that Dongfang Liang still praised me?"

"That's different. Dongfang Liang only knows divination, and he has never learned any offensive Taoism. If you want to learn divination, I can discuss it with him."

Wheat wilted: "Why?"

"Your spiritual power is all in your eyes, nothing else—nothing."

Mai Mai was completely blown away, and originally wanted to learn to draw a talisman or something...

"Beep--" The phone rang suddenly, and Mai Mai was surprised: "Who is calling so late?" He knew it was a stranger when he heard the ringtone, calling in the middle of the night, harassment?

"Hello, who is it?"

"Are you Maggie?"

"I am, you are-"

"I am the Traffic Police Brigade. Is Wei Yan your friend?"

"Wei Yan? What happened to Wei Yan?"

"He had a car accident. We found your number in his cell phone, so we contacted you."

"Car accident! How is he doing now?"

"Bumped his head and is in the 401. Can you come over? Or can you contact his family?"

"I, I'll go there right away!"
