Mansion Raiders

Chapter 23

Li Shan is also a busy man, unlike Shang Tingzhi who only shows Feng Shui of luxury houses to others, Li Shan not only collects demons and catches ghosts, but also undertakes various rituals. He runs around the city all day long, never missing any opportunity to make money.

Before Shang Tingzhi moved into the Gu family's mansion, Li Shan came to visit once. The Gu family who had been exterminated was no longer wandering in the mansion, but there was a female ghost who didn't know what it was.

That time Li Shan didn't bring a powerful magic weapon with him, and he didn't even see the shadow of the female ghost. This time, he brought a family heirloom called Soul Bell, and Xia Leyang's eyes lit up as soon as he took it out.

"Master, can this thing take away the female ghost?" Xia Leyang followed Li Shan like a little follower, from the first floor of the old bungalow to the third floor, and then from the third floor back to the first floor .

Shang Tingzhi frowned and watched Xia Leyang yelling one after another, feeling that today's Li Shan was particularly unpleasant.

"This is the calling bell, which can make the female ghost appear." Li Shan walked around the living room again, ringing the bell as he walked, but there was still no change in the house.

"Then when will she show up, master?" Xia Leyang followed closely behind Li Shan, fearing that the female ghost would appear suddenly and scare him into fainting again.

"I will show up when it's time to show up." Shang Tingzhi put on a sullen face, and lifted Xia Leyang by the collar to his side, "Don't disturb him."

"I didn't bother him." Xia Leyang broke away from Shang Tingzhi angrily, and slipped back to Li Shan, "I'm learning from the master."

Shang Tingzhi frowned and said, "Don't you believe in science? What are you learning to catch ghosts now?"

"It's not contradictory." Xia Leyang stared at Li Shan's movements closely, and didn't even bother to look at Shang Tingzhi, "Don't talk, you're going to disturb Master's incantation."

Shang Tingzhi is too angry, but he also knows that Xia Leyang's mind is full of ghost-hunting thoughts, so he can only let him follow Li Shan with admiration.

"Strange." After wandering around, Li Shan put away the bell and pinched his fingers, "Is this female ghost really still in the house?"

"Yes, Master." Xia Leyang said seriously, "She ran out to scare me last night."

"What did you look like when you saw her?" Li Shan asked, "Did she have a bloody head, staring eyes and sticking out her tongue?"

Xia Leyang rubbed her chin and thought for a while: "That's not true, she's just an ordinary woman, her bangs are a bit old-fashioned."

"It doesn't look like a vicious ghost." Li Shan nodded thoughtfully, "But she seems to have become more powerful."

"Oh?" Xia Leyang frowned tightly, "How do you say that?"

"I could feel her aura last time I came here, but this time she was completely hidden." Li Shan said as he shook the golden Evocation bell in his hand, "According to what you said, she should have not left, but Evocation Bell can't summon her soul."

Xia Leyang asked strangely: "Why?"

"The biggest problem in catching this female ghost is that I don't know her origin." Li Shan sighed slightly, "Actually, you should call her name when you ring the soul calling bell, which works best, but you can also deal with it without a name." Some little ghosts, but now it seems that this female ghost should still be a little bit good."

"Is she so powerful?" Xia Leyang asked in surprise.Counting up, he had contact with the female ghost three times in total, but he didn't expect to be unscathed.

"She wasn't so powerful last time I came here." Li Shan suddenly thought of something, then turned to ask Shang Tingzhi, "You didn't raise her on purpose, did you?"

Shang Tingzhi said lightly: "How could it be?"

Xia Leyang asked curiously: "Can you still raise ghosts?"

"Of course." Li Shandao, "Some people specially raise little ghosts to do bad things, haven't you seen them on TV?"

"I've seen it." Xia Leyang nodded honestly, recalling in his mind the plot of feeding zombies with boy's blood, and asked even more curiously: "Then do you need to feed them blood or something like that to raise ghosts?"

"That's not necessarily true." Li Shan shook his index finger, "I've seen one raised with ashes, and that ghost was so vicious that it almost killed me."

"Is there such an operation?" Xia Leyang asked in amazement. Li Shan's story was much more interesting than ghost movies. He winked, signaling him not to ask any more questions.

"However," Li Shan narrated his thrilling experience of catching ghosts with great emotion, and then changed the subject, "Your female ghost doesn't need to be so troublesome, you two big men, especially Lao Shang, who is walking around, she can suck it casually. Even inhaling essence can deepen the path.”

Xia Leyang hiccupped nervously: "Suck, suck, suck?"

"Aspiration is similar to your energy." Li Shan added thoughtfully, "Maybe she secretly absorbed your energy while you were sleeping."

"That's it." Xia Leyang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it seems that Master Li is an upright person, and he would not think of messy things, otherwise he would reveal his secrets. However, at this time, Li Shan suddenly frowned and let out a "huh".

"You two..." Li Shan looked at Shang Tingzhi and Xia Leyang suspiciously, Shang Tingzhi still didn't respond, but Xia Leyang swallowed in fright.

"What's wrong with us?" Xia Leyang asked nervously.

"If the female ghost did inhale energy, don't you both feel anything?" Li Shan asked.

Fortunately, the topic is still energy instead of essence.

Xia Leyang exhaled secretly, and was about to fool around, but Shang Tingzhi said lightly: "It feels good."

Li Shan: "?"

"No, no, no." Xia Leyang quickly waved his hands, "It doesn't feel good at all!"

What the two said was completely opposite. Logically speaking, Li Shan should be suspicious, but fortunately, he is a master of metaphysics, and he can justify everything, so he counted his fingers and explained for the two of them. : "I see, it should be a physical problem."

"Physical?" Xia Leyang answered the question with trepidation.

"Old Shang's yang energy is too strong, it's just right to suck some of it away." Li Shan pointed at Shang Tingzhi with his second finger, then turned to Xia Leyang and said, "As for you, you lack yang energy, so you will feel uncomfortable."

Xia Leyang clapped his chin, couldn't agree more and said: "Master, your analysis is too correct!"

"Hey, don't even look at who I am." Li Shan smiled smugly, "I'll put an enchantment in your room later, so that you shouldn't be affected by that female ghost when you sleep at night."

"Thank you Master." Xia Leyang said, "But can't we accept her directly?"

"Then you still need to know her name or birthday." Li Shan didn't want to admit that he couldn't do it, and emphasized: "When you find out who she is, I will accept her in minutes."

Li Shan took out some strange things from his bag, and then went to the second floor to set up the enchantment.The end of the stairs leading to the second floor is closer to Xia Leyang's room. Li Shanxian came here, and when he was about to open the door, Xia Leyang reminded without thinking: "Master, we sleep in the room next door."

"Ah, okay." Li Shan heard that he withdrew his hand to open the door, and continued to walk forward, but at this moment he quickly responded to a question, looked back at Xia Leyang and said, "You two sleep in the same room?"

"Uh..." Xia Leyang realized that he had slipped his tongue, and before he could figure out how to explain it, Shang Tingzhi raised his eyebrows coldly and said, "What's the problem?"

"No, I should have thought about it earlier." Li Shan winked and said to Shang Tingzhi.

He thought that his analysis just now was foolproof, but he didn't expect that he ignored the relationship between the two.If the "exercise frequency" of the two is very high, wouldn't it be a waste of money for the female ghost?

After setting up the enchantment in Shang Tingzhi's room, Li Shan kindly reminded the two of them: "What I said, after you finish exercising, remember to do a good job of cleaning, and it's not okay to leave a drop."

Xia Leyang tilted his head, and asked in confusion: "What cleaning work?"

"Your children and grandchildren!" Li Shan said bitterly, "If the female ghost gets on that thing, she will have a full meal."

Xia Leyang was at a loss, and hadn't fully understood the meaning of Li Shan's words. Shang Tingzhi had already put his arms around his shoulders, and said to Li Shan with no expression: "He is very good at cleaning, and he never leaves a drop."

Li Shan's expression was thoughtful at first, then suddenly realized, then complicated, and finally a little envious: "It's nice to have someone who can do a good job."

Countless question marks appeared above Xia Leyang's head, he looked at Shang Tingzhi beside him: "What is he talking about?"

"It's nothing." Shang Tingzhi said lightly, "I'm praising you."
