Chapter 197 Chapter 2 Power On

Chapter 197 The Second Phone Call

The phone rang again.

Luo Xi looked at the number and saw that it was Liang Qu who called this time.

Luo Xi did not give any extra instructions to this reckless man. Compared with Fatty Qian and others who were closer, Liang Qu was still some distance away from him, so in this level scene, to be honest, Luo Xi did not have any excessive expectations of them.

The call was answered.

But the voice on the phone was a woman's.

"Luo Xi?"

Luo Xi remembered this voice.

"An Zhiyan!"

"It's really you. That's great." An Zhiyan sounded very happy on the other end.

Yu Xiaoru also heard it and was about to speak, but she seemed to have thought of something, so she held back and looked at Luo Xi.

Obviously Yu Xiaoru couldn't be sure whether the person who called was really An Zhiyan.

Luo Xi did not stop her. Instead, he handed the phone to Yu Xiaoru.

That means, you say it.

The latter nodded and took it, then switched positions with Luo Xi and returned the scissors.

"Sister An!" Yu Xiaoru spoke.

"Xiao Ru, I just saw the photos on Liang Qu's phone. I have been worried about you. It's great that you and Luo Xi are together." An Zhiyan's voice was filled with a very natural joy, and there was no problem in it.

"Aunt Qin she"

"That was just a special situation. No one knew that something like that would happen. The evil spirit came too quickly. Aunt Qin didn't say any of this for the time being in order to protect us. Let Luo Xi speak, or tell him that the rabbit is the culprit of the entire building and must be killed." An Zhiyan raised her voice a degree, sounding very anxious.

When Luo Xi heard this, his expression remained unchanged, and he just shook his head at Yu Xiaoru.

The latter understood immediately.

An Zhiyan on the other end of the phone has a question.

It is easy to understand. The other party is with Liang Qu, which means they are in Area C, and Area C is some distance away from Area A. Another point is that Taoist Mao does not seem to have left this room.

Although Luo Xi did not understand the so-called Taoist talismans, he could roughly tell that the talismans hanging in the room and the eight-sided bronze mirror should be some kind of formation for defense. In other words, Taoist Mao made this place like a small fortress to prevent the evil spirits outside from attacking when the "night" fell.

Now that the fortifications have been built, is it impossible for them to run away with nothing to do?

So, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for An Zhiyan to have seen a rabbit.

She probably didn't know about the existence of the rabbit, but she wanted me to kill it. There was no doubt that there was something wrong with her.

Just like before, the phone was on loud speaker, so the rabbit could hear everything, including the last conversation, but its mouth was covered and a pair of scissors were against its neck, so it didn't dare to do anything wrong at this time.

But more anger surged out of his scarlet eyes.

Yu Xiaoru didn’t know what to say. After realizing that the person on the other end of the phone was not the real An Zhiyan but a ghost, she no longer had the desire to continue communicating.

Some people just want to scold the other person.

Luo Xi saw what she was thinking and walked over to answer the phone.

"I'm curious!"

"Luo Xi? What are you curious about?" asked the person on the other end of the phone.

"Why do you want to kill the rabbit? Logically speaking, what it does is beneficial to you." Luo Xi asked.

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while.

Then An Zhiyan's voice sounded: "You killed the rabbit, I will tell you why, otherwise I..."

Before the other party finished speaking, Luo Xi hung up the phone.

Yu Xiaoru beside her was puzzled: "That fake guy said otherwise, otherwise what?"

"The threat is either with An Zhiyan's life or Liang Qu's life." Luo Xi looked at the rabbit. The guy was a little embarrassed now, with a lot of scarlet blood stains on his white fur.

That was caused by being stabbed with scissors.

"Find something to tie it up." After Luo Xi finished speaking, Brother Mao immediately went to look for it. After a while, he found a ball of hemp rope under the table over there. It was quite strong. Together with Fatty Qian, he tied up Taoist Mao tightly.

In this way, combined with Yu Xiaoru's previous ribbon card, the Big White Rabbit is now tied up like a rice dumpling.

No matter how powerful the means are, they cannot be used.

"Master, let's talk."

Luo Xi sat opposite, Fatty Qian stood behind Mao Dao Ren, Yu Xiaoru was beside him, and Brother Mao stood on the other side.

They worked in tacit understanding, surrounding the big rabbit and occupying advantageous terrain. They were also afraid that this guy had left some tricks in the house, so Luo Xi took down a lot of bronze mirrors, talismans and other things.

The big rabbit trembled all over again when he saw this.

But the other party didn't seem to want to talk.

"So, Taoist priest, you still have some unrealistic delusions. Do you think you can turn the tables? Or do you have some hidden cards that we don't know about?" Luo Xi is good at seeing through people's hearts. Even people can't deceive him, let alone a rabbit.

"Fatty, set a fire, burn this place down." Luo Xi said.

Fatty Qian never asked for reasons when giving Luo Xi an order, and always did whatever he was told to do.

The guy said "OK" and immediately took out his lighter.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Taoist Mao was anxious this time.

Even the rabbit's tail began to tremble.

I guess I hit a soft spot. "Burn!" Luo Xi was unmoved.

Once you find the opponent's weakness, you must apply extreme pressure. The advantage is that the opponent will not have time to think and respond, and will be more likely to expose his true intentions and thoughts.

Fatty Qian started the fire directly.

"If this place is destroyed, you will also die, and your death will be very miserable." Taoist Mao became anxious and started shouting, his eyes fixed on a certain location from time to time.

Luo Xi looked in that direction.

That was the wall behind the altar, but it was covered with apricot-yellow cloth with bells and talismans on it.

When Brother Mao saw Luo Xi's eyes, he immediately understood and walked over, took a look first, then reached out and pulled off the apricot-yellow cloth.

As it turned out, there was another room inside.

"I didn't expect that you actually have a secret room here?" Luo Xi guessed that he had discovered a hidden area within the scene, which might trigger a hidden plot.

Sure enough, Taoist Mao seemed to be crazy at this moment, struggling, cursing, and then began to beg.

"Your name is Luo Xi, right? If you can make a deal with ghosts, then you can do business with me. You state the conditions, and I will agree to anything you want, as long as you don't touch anything in that room." At this moment, Taoist Mao was like a gambler who had bet everything on the gambling table and fell into some kind of madness.

Luo Xi did not respond. Brother Mao went in to take a look, then came out with a strange look on his face. After thinking for a while, he came closer and said something to Luo Xi.

"There's a ghost in there, and it's a female ghost with a big belly."

Luo Xi also went in to see, and it was true.

There was a bed inside, covered with yellow talismans, which looked quite sacred.

The floor and ceiling correspond to the Bagua diagram, and there are also bronze mirrors, but the angles are all facing the big-bellied female ghost.

The female ghost was pregnant, but the strange thing was that her belly would move from time to time.

The pale belly was covered with blue veins. Compared with other evil spirits and scary places in this place, it didn't seem to be scary at all, but it gave people an indescribable sense of horror.

Fatty Qian also went in to take a look out of curiosity, followed by Yu Xiaoru.

"Oh my god, this rabbit has a strong taste. But I don't understand what it means to have a big-bellied female ghost here?" Fatty Qian looked eager to learn.

Yu Xiaoru's eyes also lit up, and the fire of gossip was burning, she wanted to know the reason.

Luo Xi looked at Taoist Mao.

"If you want to do business, tell me what's going on."

Taoist Mao shook his head and said, "I can give you some benefits. For example, I can let you stay here safely and no evil spirits will dare to attack you. If you want to leave, I will also help you. By the way, I can also help you find those scapegoats."

"scapegoat?"

"Yes, you seem to know about those ghosts that can replace normal people without anyone noticing, but you definitely don't know where the replaced people have gone. I can tell you, how about bringing them all back?" Taoist Mao said.

At this time, it is like a cunning businessman, constantly offering benefits.

Luo Xi shook his head: "I don't care about the scapegoat, and I don't want to know. Tell me about the pregnant female ghost in the house. I'm more curious about that."

"No, you don't understand. This matter has nothing to do with you, but the scapegoat has something to do with you. I can see that you are a cold and ruthless person by nature. You are a person who can do great things, just like me. Yes, you may not care about the life and death of others, but you have to at least care about your own safety, right?" Taoist Mao smiled and observed Luo Xi's reaction.

But unfortunately, Luo Xi is a master of psychological warfare with strong insight, so how could he leave any loopholes for the opponent in this regard?

He had no expression.

As cold as a piece of ice that has never melted.

"Do you think I care?" Luo Xi did not answer, but asked back.

For a moment, it was Taoist Mao who was stunned.

After a long while, it cursed: "You lunatic, lunatic, I actually discussed with a lunatic."

Luo Xi smiled, shook the scissors in his hand, and walked into the house.

The silence speaks.

A word of silence is worth a thousand words.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Finally, Taoist Mao gave in first.

There was no way, his weakness was already obvious, that was the pregnant female ghost in the house, and in its eyes, Luo Xi had no weaknesses at all.

A madman without any weaknesses has no choice but to give in.

"I say, actually, I just want to become an immortal." Taoist Mao lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

The room was silent at this moment.

Fatty Qian was the first to curse: "Fuck, I thought you could say something amazing, but it turns out you were just trying to fool us. Luo Ju, you don't have to do anything. I'll take care of the female ghost inside."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to go in.

Luo Xi stopped him.

"The Taoist priest didn't lie."

"what?"

This time, the fat man was confused when exchanging money.

But he knew that if Luo Xi said the other party did not lie, then he did not lie.

Does this rabbit really just want to become an immortal?
The question is, who believes this nowadays?

"Master, please continue, but please pay attention to the time." Luo Xi looked at his phone and saw that there were only a few minutes left before the next rotation of 'Dark Night'.
