He followed the procedure mentioned by Ruan Zhan, sat cross-legged on the toilet seat, put the Blood Wood Sword in his hand, took out the kraft paper envelope from his arms, took out one of the paper birds and a water observation spell, and took a deep breath He took a breath and calmed down his mind.
Maybe he was nervous. The paper bird would fall off when he put it on top of his head. It took him a long time to get it to stay firmly on top of his head. This made him let out a sigh of relief. It was just a piece of paper. But it made him feel as heavy as a thousand pounds, his neck was stiff, and he was sweating.
"It's not my fault, I'm not used to the magic stick's techniques." He muttered to comfort himself, and lit the charm with a lighter. He thought it would burn normally, but he never expected that the piece of paper flew out of his hand with a sound as soon as it caught fire, and stayed in mid-air and burned for several seconds, completely beyond normal physical phenomena. And because the incident happened suddenly, he almost fell off the toilet.
He had been worried that the paper bird that had been placed above his head would fall down again. However, when he staggered, he saw that there was no sign of the paper bird on the ground. When he looked up, he saw that it looked like a real bird. The same thing is hovering above his head.
He knew he could talk at this time, so he quickly sat down and told what happened the night he just arrived, "I judged the real ghosts and fake ghosts based on the condition of the Blood Wood Sword. Those three idiots When I arrived, the Blood Wood Sword didn't move, so it must be a fake. Also, I just came here after all, so I didn't inquire much. I've told you everything. You have to tell me the situation over there and how long you can last. . It’s over. No, no, no—there’s something else. Why don’t we get a walkie-talkie, or just use a cell phone? It’s really over this time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a heat on top of his head. The paper bird had turned into a small flame, burning very fast in the air, and then fell instantly. Wan Li was startled and jumped away quickly to avoid being burned on the top of his head. He was so angry that he almost cursed Ruan Zhan, blaming him for not reminding him. However, before he could speak, he suddenly felt someone calling him in his mind. He immediately calmed down and listened to Ruan Zhan's reply to him.
Two minutes later, he came out of the public restroom and returned to his room. Although it was only midnight and he was extremely sleepy, he couldn't fall asleep.
Ruan Zhan told him: Half of the twelve people were dead. He and Xiaoxia could still hold on in the new town for a while, but they had to investigate the situation outside quickly, because there was too much resentment in the town, and ordinary people were Staying in there for too long will take its toll, and he himself was slightly injured and needed some time to recover. Also, Xiaoxia once encountered some strange things in the largest hotel in the town, related to porcelain, and there were ghosts crying for heat. Since we found out from the outside that the address of the new town used to be a kiln, we can learn from this aspect. The best thing to do is to stay in that hotel.
As for the question of why he didn’t use technological supplies to communicate, Ruan Zhan didn’t pay any attention to it. But even Wan Li understood that it was because these modern communication devices would have no signal and would be shielded by invisible magnetic fields. The reason why he asked this was because boring questions would relieve tension. Now Ruan Zhan was leading Xiao Xia and six survivors who were worse than Xiao Xia to fight alone. The more relaxed his mind was, the better. Although Ruan Zhan has always been a calm and collected person, when Xiao Xia is around him, he will inevitably have mood swings.
That dead girl is now Ruan Zhan’s destiny!
According to Ruan Zhan’s words, it probably means that the twelve trapped people are more or less related to the past event that caused the resentful spirit. Even if they are younger, it may be because of someone in the family. People were implicated, so the relationship between these people is also an important clue. What did they participate in together?
As for the reinforcement that Wan Li met tonight who came to rescue him twice, Ruan Zhan believed that he must be related to the matter they wanted to investigate, because the souls were relatively spiritual and would know that he was investigating the matter. After coming, we can also judge that he is well-intentioned, so he may be asked to redress their grievances.
Thinking about it now, they already have three unclear clues - the first is about the kiln, and he plans to investigate this matter in the name of a porcelain lover tomorrow; second, the person who helps tonight After passing through his soul, it stands to reason that if he really has a grievance to complain, he should come to him again, so he decided to wander on the street at midnight tomorrow to see if he could meet him; thirdly, what is the relationship between these twelve people? It is difficult to investigate. Although they all seem to be real people, the relationship between people is the most complicated and it is not easy for outsiders to understand. We have to start with their origins and what they have done together.
Also, he must beware of Sima Nan sending people to attack him sneakily. Although Sima Nan, a small character like him, would not do it himself, as long as he sent the beautiful woman in red, he might not be able to defeat him, so he decided to use the invisibility charm appropriately and be careful not to be followed by Fei He. The important thing is to create a situation where Sima Nan cannot easily touch him. He now finally fully understood what Ruan Zhan often said - the enemy is strong and we are weak, and we can only win with wit and courage.
To act aggressively in this situation is tantamount to an idiot's behavior.
Wan Li lay in bed all night planning tomorrow's events. He slept for a short time when it was almost dawn, and then immediately moved to the big hotel in the town. The owner of this small hotel didn't even ask him for room money. He said nice things, such as failing to protect the safety of his guests and allowing thieves to harass the guests. But Wan Li knew in his heart that he must have taken the money from the thugs. Just don't expose it.
He just walked on the street so openly, regardless of how much curiosity and shock his nose and face were bruised and the stab wounds exposed outside his clothes caused passers-by, and he just kept asking about the situation of the porcelain. In less than a morning, everyone in the town knew that a reporter from other provinces was going to do a special report on the hometown of porcelain, and he was very enthusiastic. Many small workshop-style porcelain shops wanted to approach him to introduce the town's porcelain. situation, I hope he can mention it a little bit in his news reports, which will be of great help to his business.
He had already moved to the largest hotel in the town early in the morning. It happened that the house next to Xiaoxia was still vacant, so he moved in. And after all the hard work in the town in the morning, by the afternoon he had exceeded his expectations for the results he wanted to get.
He has become a celebrity, and countless people are watching him every day. Sima Nan can no longer send thugs easily; he wants to inquire about the kiln, and now a group of people take the initiative to provide clues. Although it is not direct, he can ask insinuatingly. He wants to know about the people trapped in the new town, and he can get some clues through fake interviews.
Assuming that Ruan Zhan's guess is correct, then there is no collusion or even an antagonistic relationship between Sima Nan and the upper-level figures in Hongqing Town, because if he wants to use the resentful spirit, he must satisfy the resentful spirit's desire for revenge. If these town leaders had concealed the matter of so many resentful spirits, then they must have been the main targets of revenge. This can be seen from the fact that most of the people trapped in the new town were officials. In this way, they definitely don't want the resentful spirit to be released!
So, although he has to do many things secretly, Sima Nan is even more shady than him. Moreover, if someone wants to check his reporter identity, nothing will be found for the time being, because although he has a fake reporter identity and his press card is not real, he does bear the title of special correspondent through friendship. Installed temporarily. If someone wanted to inquire about the newspaper office, his wise friend would help him hesitate for a while.
He couldn't help but smile when he thought about this. Taking the initiative in the morning really gave him the initiative. Now Sima Nan didn't dare to deal with him blatantly, but he could investigate the matter with peace of mind. If Sima Nan sends a fierce ghost at night, he can also use the invisibility charm to implement the three-hole strategy to ensure that Sima Nan will not find him easily.
Now his biggest problem is to figure out the ins and outs of the matter as quickly as possible, provide clues to Ruan Zhan and Xiaoxia as soon as possible, and to muddy the waters in this town, and to find a man named Mr. Long.
He gave the town a good name and personally selected the site for the new town. It is said that he is a very learned hermit, but few people have seen his true appearance, and few people know where he lives, which arouses Wan Li's keen interest.
Who is he? Is it related to this matter?
He didn't have time to think about this at the moment, because throughout the afternoon and even throughout the night, Luo Yi kept coming to the hotel to see him. He began to collect a large amount of intelligence, and then filtered out the most useful information.
…………………………
"These two boys!" Sima Nan stood in front of the window with a gloomy expression.
He was still staying in the luxurious suite of the five-star hotel, while Hong Haohao was sitting on the sofa behind him, feeling that he was extremely unhappy, so he didn't dare to interrupt.
She had just reported the situation in Hongqing Town to Sima Nan, and her plan to implement Wanli was a complete failure - the Bloodwood Sword and the things left behind were not stolen, Wanli was not really hurt, and Wanli was blocked. Keep on doing this. Although Sima Nan came up with the plan, she was the one who carried it out personally after all, and she was very afraid of being offended.
"Except for the first time we played against them, I have never underestimated them. I even overestimated them a little every time. However, their potential seems to be unlimited and they will always be more powerful than I thought." Sima Nan continued Said, "Okay, tell me, am I getting old?"
Since he asked, Hong Haohao didn't dare not say anything. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "Didn't you say that fighting with such people is the only way to have fun? In this way, wouldn't it be just a good time to play with you?" After she finished speaking, She peeked at his reaction, but he still stood with his back to her, motionless.
"You are right." Sima Nan's tone was straight, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, "But there is a saying that raising tigers is dangerous. When the boy surnamed Ruan becomes extremely powerful, the boy surnamed Wan will be able to fight with you." If I have to be raised, I will be the one who dies. Hey, think about it, I might die in their hands."
"No, you won't die. No one is stronger than you, and you will definitely defeat these two boys." Hong Haohao said hurriedly.
Her tone was very sincere, because without Sima Nan, she could not exist in this world, and she greedily loved the darkness and prosperity of this world. And she was afraid of this man. Although he was the best lover when he was gentle, his heart was like a bottomless pit that people could not see clearly. Sometimes it would overflow with ferocious torrents, which was extremely terrifying.
"Don't worry, I can't die, because I won't let Ruan Zhan become so powerful that I can't stand it, and die in their hands? Huh, I'm just saying, you really believe it!" Sima Nan laughed arrogantly , finally brought out a hint of emotion in his words, which made Hong Haohao breathe a sigh of relief.
"I will go to Hongqing Town in person tomorrow." Sima Nan made the decision.
Looking at the lights and traffic outside the window, he suddenly felt a little dazed. Is life so beautiful? He doesn't know, he just wants to know the taste of eternal life, so he must get it. And even if he dies, only Abai is qualified to take his life!
