Chapter 322: Soul Calling Tower (Part II)

I was so childlike that I quietly walked behind her, trying to surprise her. Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked to a distance of only half a meter away from her, she spoke, "Ah Ye, next time you want to be scary, remember to find a weather without sun." ”

When I looked at my feet, I realized that my shadow had dragged to her feet. Secretly scolding myself for being stupid, I snorted, "It's not emotional." As a girl, you should cooperate properly when a handsome guy wants to joke with you. This is the basic common sense of being a lady! ”

"I'm sorry about that. You go back and do it all over again, this time I'll pretend to be a lady!" She looked back at me, a narrow smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.

I pouted listlessly, "No need. Are you a lady or not. What were you looking at? ”

"This thing. Night, do you know what it is? Zhao Yunhan pointed to a pile of stones in front of him to test me.

I took a look. It is a pile of very flat pebbles, and the pebbles used are all rounded on the front. The thick edges underneath are getting smaller and smaller, taking on the shape of a tower. This pile of stones is stacked seven stories high.

"This is the Soul Summoning Tower." I also crouched down and said slowly, "It is said that the souls of children are very fragile, especially those who have drowned, and their souls can be easily pulled away by water spirits. Therefore, after the aborigines of the Yangma River have children under the age of 13 drowned by the river at home, they usually go to the riverbed to build this kind of soul-calling tower, hoping to find the child's soul back. ”

"A man who is worthy of the title of a god stick even knows such a rare custom clearly." Zhao Yunhan's face was full of surprise, and she clapped her hands vigorously.

I glared at her, "You don't have a compliment in this sentence at all. Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with you. Why are you looking at the Soul Calling Tower? ”

"There's a reason, of course." She and I played a dumb puzzle: "Ask you a question. If a person takes a 100-dollar bill to the store and buys something for 25 yuan, but its cost price is only 20 yuan. The shopkeeper had no change on hand, so he took the 100-yuan bill to the vendor next door and exchanged it for 100 yuan and recovered the man's 75 yuan. The man walked away with $25 and $75 in change.

After a while, the vendor next door approached the shopkeeper and said that the 100 yuan bill that the shopkeeper had just exchanged for change was a counterfeit currency. The shopkeeper took a closer look, and sure enough, it was a counterfeit banknote. He had no choice but to find a real 100-dollar bill for the vendor. So, how much money did the shopkeeper lose in the whole process? ”

Depressed, isn't this logical way of questioning that forces the other party to think toward their own way of thinking is not their own patent? When was it copied by her? I frowned and thought for a moment, "Ninety-five yuan." How? What do you want to tell me with this question? ”

"It's nothing." Probably answered correctly by herself, Zhao Yun was a little disappointed, "How does your logical thinking view this problem?" ”

"It's simple. Many people think that the key is the counterfeit 100 dollar bill. In fact, the main problem lies in the genuine 100 yuan bill returned to the hawker at the end. It's just that a lot of people ignore it. I replied as I tried to guess her intentions: "The boss exchanged the counterfeit 100 yuan bill for the real 100 yuan bill, and the 75 yuan that was given to the man was also the real one." However, he still had 25 yuan left, although he finally returned the hawker's 100 yuan in real bills. However, the last 100 dollars can be offset against the 100 dollars of change recovered. You don't mean to tell me that this Soul Calling Tower in front of you is a 100 yuan counterfeit bill, are you? ”

"You guessed it." Zhao Yunhan was a little unconvinced, she looked at me and said, "This is the Soul Calling Tower that grabbed your corpse last night." ”

"What!" My face suddenly turned pale, and for some reason, an inexplicable fear appeared in my heart. It was as if that cold little hand, with amazing strength, was still hanging tightly on his wrist.

Involuntarily touched my left wrist, I forced myself to calm down, and said coldly with a calm face, "What are you looking for this?" ”

"Don't you think it's weird?" Zhao Yun frowned, "You and I both know very well that Zhao Wei was not drowned in the water. He was supposed to have been thrown into the Yangma River after his death. ”

"Yes, the suspect who killed him is probably the one who went around telling the villagers that Zhao Wei fell into the Yangma River." I wondered, "But what does this matter to us?" In cases like murder, we should call the police. ”

"I don't have the heart to care about such a thing. I mean, why did Zhao Wei make the exact same sound last night as the drowned toddler. This is the first time in 13 years that such an exception has occurred. ”

I disdainfully said, "The so-called exception is just not found." Are you sure that in the past thirteen years, three days after the death of all the young children in Yangma Village, someone has checked whether they will be in a state of fake life? Perhaps this kind of 'fake life' is not limited to drowning young children. ”

Zhao Yunhan shook his head vigorously, "I'm pretty sure." In the past 13 years, not only in the village, but also in the nearby 30 kilometers, as long as someone has died, there have been experts to investigate. Therefore, in recent years, it has been concluded that the state of 'fake life' only appears in the body of young children under the age of 13 who drowned in the Yangma River. There is no doubt about that. But Zhao Wei's corpse is really incomprehensible. ”

"Don't you know how to draw symbols or something? You forced me to drink talisman water before, why don't you draw a few pictures and see if you can invite Zhao Wei's soul out? I bewitched. Although I am haunted by the fact that she forced me to drink talisman water in the past, I have seen her use talisman water to melt the fish bones of a child stuck in the throat, although I don't know the principle, but it is really divine.

She didn't speak, just looked at the Soul Summoning Tower gently with her big beautiful eyes, and looked at it very carefully.

When I saw her serious look, I couldn't help but grow my mouth, "You can't really have a way to summon souls with ghost drawing talismans, right?" ”

Zhao Yunhan half-opened his eyes, slowly looked back at me, and smiled very brightly, "How can there be such a thing as soul summoning, those talismans are just casually drawn by others." People are super interested in folklore, and ghost painting is also a kind of folklore, so you won't be forced to interfere with other people's private interests, right?! ”

I looked at the face that was hidden with a fake smile that could no longer be fake, and I was a little speechless. This guy doesn't really have a way to summon souls. Although I don't believe it much, the man's sixth sense always tells me very strongly that she is definitely hiding something unspeakable, and that thing is definitely just thought of by the reminder of herself.

Shaking his head, he secretly made up his mind to follow her a little closer from now on. I suddenly thought of today's breakfast, hesitated a little, and finally stammered, "That's right, that, this morning, thank you." ”

Zhao Yun looked at me in surprise, "Thank me, what?" ”

"Breakfast."

"What's breakfast? I haven't eaten yet? Did you eat it? She blinked in confusion.

My face suddenly became very strange: "Didn't you prepare the soy milk fritters for me this morning?" You also left a note......"

At the mention of the note, I thought to myself. The handwriting of the note is not Zhao Yunhan's. I had never seen that handwriting myself. But because I was so happy at the time, I didn't think about it so much.

So, who exactly prepared my breakfast? Is there anyone in this village who remembers me and recognizes me? Judging by the handwriting, the person should be a girl. But why didn't she come and recognize me in a dignified manner?

Alas, for some reason, the strange atmosphere and fog that enveloped the village grew thicker and thicker......
