Chapter 149: Playing Ghost (Part 1)

The screams, cries, and retching sounds of collapse filled the chaotic rental house.

Compared with Xiao Gao and Xiao He who completely lost their minds and cried and cursed, Yuan Yufang, who was holding the door frame and retching, had a mild reaction.

Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the young tenant who was desperately holding her throat and trying to vomit out the acid in her stomach, Sun Yue, who the police officers escorted, curved the corners of her pale lips and smiled.

Based on the abnormal reactions of several tenants, the police officers present and the audience in the live broadcast room had guessed what Sun Yue said, and they were shocked and suspicious;

The two police officers closest to her looked at her face with a sinister smile and couldn’t help but feel cold.

[Ahhhh! My scalp is numb, is it what I thought??!]

[What do you mean? Sun Yue didn’t say anything, but everyone seemed to know it. Is there any smart guy who can explain what happened?]

[Back upstairs, it should be that the female landlord wants to use her dead brother’s body to do evil magic, trying to give her brother a child, involving the tenants living in this house, the specific situation is still unclear.]

[But before the landlord’s true face was revealed, Sangsang asked a few girls about their impression of the landlord. At that time, they said that the landlord was very kind and often sent them food; combined with the landlord’s words “blood and flesh blending” and their current reactions, I guess her brother’s body is related to the things sent to the tenants. Gosh, if my guess is true, just thinking about it makes me sick.]

[Crazy, this woman is crazy, she is crazy!]

[It can’t be that scary, it’s unlikely.]

[Sun Minghao has been dead for 6 years. To be offensive, the body buried may have rotted away!]

“Master Gu!” Xiao He, who was leaning on the sink and vomiting with tears all over her face, suddenly thought of something, stumbled to Yuan Yanfang’s side, and snatched the mobile phone connected to the live broadcast from her hand, as if grabbing a life-saving straw:

“Master Gu, this is not true, right?!”

Several tenants looked up in Xiao He’s direction, hoping for the best.

What if their assumptions were too serious?

Was Sun Yue lying to them?!

But after repeated confirmation by Officer Zhao and Gu Zhisang, they were desperate.

Gu Zhisang sighed softly and began to answer the doubts of Officer Zhao and the audience in the live broadcast room.

The first question that was asked most often among many doubts. How did Sun Yue take the body out of the cemetery, and how could Gu Zhisang confirm that Sun Minghao’s body had been excavated?

“For a sorcerer, ‘remote acquisition’ is not a difficult task, and it is even easier for a sorcerer who can set up a battle array.” Gu Zhisang said:

“For example, the art of Qimen Dunjia uses the true and false, constantly changing eight gates and eight positions to perform replacements. Objects can change, and so do people’s life and death, fortune and misfortune.”

“As for how I determined it——”

Gu Zhisang tapped the end of her eyes with her scallion-white fingertips: “My eyes can see a lot of things you can’t see, such as corpse energy.”

Ghosts have yin energy, and evil ways can also produce evil energy.

Corpses, which were buried underground for years to rot and ferment, absorb filth, and naturally have unique corpse-corrupted gas.

These tenants, without exception, are wrapped in the corpse energy that has invaded the bone marrow and belongs to Sun Minghao. Some were thick or thin, maybe because some were old and new tenants. But obviously, it was possible to have a ‘close contact’ with Sun Minghao’s corpse.

In addition, the main question was where Sun Minghao’s corpse is and wasat was the relationship between it and these tenants.

After a moment of silence, Gu Zhisang asked:

“Miss Yuan, have the three of you had bad stomachs since the second half of this year?”

“When I stand on an empty stomach, my lower abdomen bulges slightly. When I lie flat, I always feel a little soreness in my lower abdomen, and the foreign body sensation is more obvious.”

Yuan Yufang nodded, looking embarrassed:

“I feel that I often have dull pain in my lower abdomen in the past 2 months. It is more bulging than before, but it is not serious and does not affect my life. I always thought it was constipation, so I didn’t take it seriously…”

Constipation, a symptom that was not even considered a disease, was a common phenomenon for modern people.

Staying up late, irregular diet, or high stress can all cause it.

She wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up before, but she was embarrassed, afraid that after the ultrasound, her stomach would be full of feces, and she would be embarrassed in front of the doctor.

Xiao Gao, who had been silent, said with a pale face:

“Xiao He and I also had it. I thought it was uterine fibroids and was very scared. I also went for a related physical examination. The results showed that all indicators were normal, and no major problems were found. It was just that my lower abdomen was protruding.”

She said that she had done a gastrointestinal endoscopy, had her uterus photographed, and had her stool checked. She was also healthy, but her lower abdomen was slightly protruding, and she occasionally felt like there was something wrong with it.

She was puzzled and could only think that there was something wrong with her digestive system.

As for Xiao He, she was more simple-minded. She thought she was just fat and had gained weight, and she kept shouting that she wanted to lose weight.

Now it seems that such a simple truth was probably not the case.

As expected, Gu Zhisang’s next words made the already pale girl even more shocked:

“It’s normal that you can’t find the problem. You all have very special ghosts in your stomachs, which are visible and invisible. It’s still early now. If you delay it, it will only grow bigger and bigger, and there will be big problems in the end.”

“I’ll tell you from the source. I don’t know if you have heard of the ‘art of making livestock’.”

‘Making livestock’, as the name suggests, means making livestock.

The raw material was human.

It was a kind of magic and witchcraft that turned into livestock, which was also a kind of unconventional magic.

Whether it was in strange rumors or folk tales, similar stories circulated among the people.

In the past, when this magic was not banned by the Taoist Masters, many masters in the south of the Yellow River had mastered it.

Those with crude means and ordinary abilities need to peel off the skin of the animals while they are still alive to ensure the freshness of the skin.

Then stick the bloody animal skin on the human body, sew it with needles and thread, and then perform magic to make the animal skin firmly integrated with the human skin.

The human skeleton will also be compressed and eventually turned into an animal.

Adults were mostly turned into cattle and sheep, and children were often turned into cats and dogs.

The “livestock” from “creating livestock” can generally retain their consciousness and memory as humans, which was the most terrifying part of this evil magic.

As for powerful sorcerers, they can not only change their appearance but also completely animalize human flesh and structure.

Gu Zhisang has read the records of her predecessors in the Taoist classics, saying that there were evil cultivators who did evil among the people, and people often disappeared in the city.

The youngest son of a local official disappeared strangely, and he offered a large reward and sent many servants to find him, but found nothing.

The distraught official got drunk in the middle of the night but was stopped by a dirty monkey that suddenly jumped out of the alley on his way home.

The little monkey hugged his thigh and screamed wildly, with tears in his eyes, which scared the drunk man, who thought it was a monster.

Unable to get rid of this wild monkey, the man who lost his son was very upset and asked the guards to chop the little monkey to death and throw it in the rotten alley.

Later, the monkey’s body was picked up by nearby beggars, cooked, and shared. The meat was extremely delicious, but at the end of the meal, a child’s finger was found in the pot.

Looking more carefully, the bones that the monkey had gnawed clean were not the bones of a child?!

After many investigations by the local Taoist Masters, it was discovered that the missing people had been turned into cattle, sheep, pigs, and dogs by the evil cultivators using the ‘animal creation technique’.

Some were sold to pull carts and dig the soil in the fields, some were bought to be beaten and domesticated, and when they were found, they were still flattering and bowing in the street juggling team;

There were also many people who, like the little monkey, had been slaughtered and eaten as real livestock.

The official could never have imagined that the wild monkey that his guard had killed with a single blow was his son, whom he had been thinking about day and night.
