Testing Head
Other people might not be able to find out, but Wan Run could definitely find out.
After Jiujiu instructed Wan Run to help her investigate Teacher Xiao and Xiao Wan, she rang Teacher Xiao's doorbell.
Teacher Xiao's house was located in a small alley not far from the school. In this place filled with buildings, their house was a small two-story courtyard. There were two large gardens in front of the door. There were many common flowers planted in the gardens. Because it was close to autumn, the chrysanthemums had already sprouted their stamens, revealing a bit of color inside. It was full of vitality.
Not long after Jiujiu rang the doorbell, the door opened from the inside.
The person who opened the door was Xiao Wan. When she saw Jiujiu come over, Xiao Wan quickly hugged Jiujiu's arm and welcomed Jiujiu into the house.
There were many flowers planted in the two flower beds outside Xiao Wan's house. The vibrant appearance gave people a good impression. However, the inside of the house had a gloomy appearance. Every window had the curtains drawn. If it wasn't for the lights, it would be so dark that not even a bit of air could pass through.
Moreover, Jiujiu could also feel a faint gloomy aura in Xiao Wan's house. It was very obvious that something was being raised in this house.
Jiujiu looked at Xiao Wan, who was smiling innocently. The corner of her mouth hooked up as she said with a smile, "Didn't you say that your father was at home?"
Suddenly hearing Jiujiu mention her father, Xiao Wan's expression stiffened. Then she pretended to be calm and smiled as she said, "My father heard that my friend was looking for me, so he specially went to the market to buy groceries."
"Then where's your mother?" Jiujiu deliberately asked.
When she heard Jiujiu ask about her mother, the smile on Xiao Wan's face instantly froze. A trace of fear even flashed through Xiao Wan's eyes.
Jiujiu looked over from the corner of her eyes. Xiao Wan's eyes were rolling back and forth in their sockets, but she didn't dare to look at Jiujiu. It was obvious that she was hiding something in her heart.
Jiujiu knew that there must be a problem with Xiao Wan calling her over this time.
Jiujiu pretended that she didn't know anything and followed Xiao Wan upstairs. When the two of them sat in Xiao Wan's room, Jiujiu suddenly smiled.
The furnishings of Xiao Wan's house looked normal, but there was a Yin Gathering Array. Obviously, Xiao Wan was keeping something unknown in her house. Moreover, from Xiao Wan's fear, it could be seen that Xiao Wan had seen that thing before.
Jiujiu pretended not to know and chatted with Xiao Wan for a while. Then, she drank the glass of water that Xiao Wan gave her and pretended to be sleepy as she lay on Xiao Wan's bed. She then closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When she saw Jiujiu closing her eyes and her breathing gradually stabilizing, Xiao Wan's eyes reddened and tears began to fall.
Jiujiu only heard Xiao Wan standing by the bed and looking at her while sobbing. "Jiujiu, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose."
Jiujiu didn't respond and continued to lie down. Xiao Wan stood by the bed and cried for a while. Then, she covered her face and walked out.
Not long after Xiao Wan left, the sound of heavy footsteps came from inside the house. From the creaking sound of the wooden floor being stepped on, it could be determined that the person was wearing hard-soled leather shoes. Moreover, the person was quite heavy.
The footsteps came closer and closer and soon stopped by the bed. Then, Jiujiu felt a faint gaze staring at her face.
Then, Jiujiu heard a distant male voice. She only heard him say, "So similar."
The male voice sounded like it had the effect of a ghost. It was distant and long, and it couldn't help but give people goosebumps.
After the male voice finished speaking, Jiujiu heard him softly chanting an incantation. Listening to the incantation, it seemed like he was summoning a spirit.
The man's voice became faster and faster. It was clearly noon, but the room was so cold that it gave Jiujiu goosebumps. At noon, Jiujiu felt a strong wave of Yin energy fly in from the flower bed outside the room. It stood by the bed like the man.
Then, Jiujiu heard the man say to the spirit, "Are you satisfied with this body?"
Then, Jiujiu heard a voice full of Yin energy. After a hum, she heard the man say, "I'll cast a spell and let you enter this body. Wait until …"
"Wait until what will you do?"
After Jiujiu ordered Little White to set up a barrier in the room, she couldn't help but open her eyes and sit up on the bed. She looked at Teacher Xiao and the spirit standing by the bed and asked with a smile.
Whether it was Teacher Xiao or the spirit, they didn't expect Jiujiu to be able to sit up. Their faces were filled with shock, especially Teacher Xiao. He saw Jiujiu drink the juice Xiao Wan gave her through the monitor. After confirming that Jiujiu was really unconscious, he came out.
Thinking of this, Teacher Xiao frowned. He thought to himself, Could it be that Xiao Wan, that little bitch, didn't give Jiujiu juice?
However, this thought only lasted for a moment and Teacher Xiao didn't take it to heart. Teacher Xiao sneered, "Even if you're fine, so what? Obediently become a body today. Otherwise, I'll make sure you die without a complete corpse."
"Is there a difference between feeding a spirit and dying without a complete corpse?" Jiujiu sneered. She looked at Teacher Xiao with a bit of killing intent.
Just like what she said to Wan Run, after a person died, unless they had resentment in their heart, their soul would quickly enter the River of Forgetfulness and enter the cycle of reincarnation. Even if they had resentment in their heart, unless they were extremely angry, they would turn into a malicious spirit. Most of them would turn into a wandering spirit. They would slowly forget their previous experiences as they wandered around until the day their soul power disappeared and they completely disappeared from the world.
As for this spirit, it didn't look like she had been around for very long. However, she was even more vicious than a normal thousand-year-old malicious spirit. Other than the silver needles in Xiao Wan's room, it was also because Teacher Xiao must have fed her many living souls.
To a spirit, living souls were a great supplement.
Moreover, after eating a living soul, one would inherit the living soul's memories when it was alive. For example, if the spirit standing beside Teacher Xiao ate her own soul and inherited her own memories, as long as she was willing, she could become her and live on according to her own path.
No wonder Xiao Wan's appearance was so strange just now. She had probably done this many times before. Thinking about it, for Teacher Xiao to have so many living souls to feed the spirit, Xiao Wan's contribution was probably not small.
Jiujiu looked at Teacher Xiao and the corners of her mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
Jiujiu's mocking smile made Teacher Xiao's expression turn ugly in an instant.
Teacher Xiao snorted coldly and looked at Jiujiu with an unfriendly gaze, "There's a path to heaven, but you don't want to take it. There's no door to hell, but you insist on entering it. Today, I'll let you know what it means to be powerful."
Perhaps Teacher Xiao really had some skills in the eyes of ordinary Daoists. However, in front of Jiujiu, he was really showing off his skills in front of Guan Yu.
