Chapter 42 Soul Summoning Part 2
Ye Shaoyang looked at him briefly and decided to not find fault with him anymore . Instead, Ye Shaoyang turned to Liao Qingqing and continued to ask, “Is your soul currently trapped in the spirit nest in dormitory four?”
Liao Qingqing nodded her head .
“What"s it like in the spirit nest … how many spirits and specters are there?” Ye Shaoyang questioned .
“I don"t know, I"m trapped, so I can"t see anything . But I can feel a tremendous amount of Yin Qi and a lot of specters and spirits,” she replied .
Ye Shaoyang nodded his head . Then, he asked, “Did one of the specters there kill you?”
Unexpectedly, Liao Qingqing shook her head and said, “A haunted doll killed me . ”
“A doll?” Her answer shocked Ye Shaoyang, So, it was that thing .
“It is very powerful and terrifying,” Liao Qingqing said in a traumatized manner . She looked up with teary, fear-filled eyes . Then, she said, “ Please Mister, you have to be careful when you"re dealing with him . Also, there"s a schoolgirl spirit … . ”
Liao Qingqing’s body began to tremble again . Her voice became softer, and her face also showed a pained expression . Then, it hit Ye Shaoyang . Since she was an incomplete soul, she could not appear for long periods . Otherwise, she might shatter .
“Are the three Hun of that female spirit inside the spirit nest?” Ye Shaoyang quickly asked this essential question, as he knew that she was short on time .
“Yes, and she is very powerful, more powerful than that doll . Mister, they are too strong, even for you, no one can beat them … . ” Liao Qingqing covered her face and sobbed helplessly . When he saw that Liao Qingqing was trembling even more, Ye Shaoyang quickly removed the talisman paper on the back of her neck and took out another blank talisman paper . He said, “Rest inside this talisman paper for now . After I save your remaining Hun and Po, I"ll make you whole and transcend you . ”
Then, Liao Qingqing turned into a wisp of smoke and entered the piece of talisman paper .
Ye Shaoyang placed the talisman paper in the hands of the stunned Hu Shaui and said, “Keep it close to you . When she has recovered, she might visit you in your dreams . ” Hu Shuai stared at the talisman paper with a heavy heart . Then, he gingerly placed it into his pocket . With a grateful heart, Hu Shuai looked at Ye Shaoyang and said, “Thank you so much, I"m really sorry for … how I treated you . I"ll definitely wire you the money once I"m back home!”
Ye Shaoyang shook his head and said, “ Give it to me when the matter is settled . ”
Although Ye Shaoyang liked money, he still had some morals . He would never take someone"s money without working . Additionally, he was not serious about the 10 thousand Yuan fee . Imagine how would people judge him, if they found out that he took 10 thousand Yuan to summon a soul for a mourning person .
Then, Li Duo asked curiously, “ Brother Shaoyang, Qingqing talked about a … doll that killed her . What is it? Is it an evil spirit?”
“It’s a specter that I fought just now in dormitory four . I wasn"t able to kill it, but I did severely injure it,” said Ye Shaoyang . Next, he gave them a rundown of the previous events, which scared the three of them . Then, Hu Shuai asked nervously, “Brother Shaoyang, Qingqing said that the spirits there are powerful . Do you … think you can beat them?”
“There"s always a way, I just need some time to figure it out,” Ye Shaoyang replied .
“Brother Shaoyang, if you can save Qingqing from there, I"ll be willing to become your servant!” Hu Shuai declared with great conviction .
“Why would I need a servant when I"m not a lord . Hunting for spirits is part of my job, so you need not worry,” Ye Shaoyang said .
After Hu Shuai thanked Ye Shaoyang again, he left for Liao Qingqing’s funeral . Li Duo went off too because he needed to take care of his girlfriend .
After they left, Ye Shaoyang laid down on his bed to organize his thoughts . From his encounter in dormitory four and the information from Liao Qingqing, Ye Shaoyang concluded that his main enemies this time were the schoolgirl spirit and the little boy doll . These two were not easy to deal with .
At noon, Xiao Ma and Ye Shaoyang did not go out for lunch . Instead, Xiao Ma ordered a food delivery . As Ye Shaoyang was about to eat, his phone started to ring . He picked it up and saw that it was Xie Yuqing, “h.e.l.lo pretty lady . You want to have lunch with me?”
“I have already eaten,” Xie Yuqing replied .
“So, why are you calling me? Have you already found some clues?” Ye Shaoyang asked .
“No, but I have something to tell you . After I returned, I gave the school’s princ.i.p.al a call . He told me that he has already found a sorcerer to solve the problem and said that they were going there this afternoon to set up an Altar of Transcendence . This will transcend the evil spirits of that building . What do you think?”
Ye Shaoyang chuckled, “Of course it’s a con . ”
“How would you know?” Xie Yuqing asked .
“Rubbish, how could a little Altar of Transcendence solve this problem . Even if my master came here, it would still be a tough battle,” Ye Shaoyang said, as he knew that an Altar of Transcendence could only transcend spirits below the level of an awakened . To use an Altar of Transcendence against a spirit nest was equivalent to using sticks and stones to fight an army equipped with guns .
“I"m not sure about that . All I know is that the school is willing to pay him a hefty price for his work . You can go see it for yourself at two o"clock . If that sorcerer is a powerful one, maybe you can work with him . But if he is just another con man, you can chase him off and try to get the rewards . ”
Xie Yuqing laughed slightly and said, “This sister treats you well right? Informing you of such good news . ”
“Thanks for the news . I"ll go and take a look in the afternoon . When the thing is done, I"ll treat you to some big meat buns,” Ye Shaoyang snickered . When he ended the call, Ye Shaoyang told Xiao Ma all about it, “And that"s why I want you to come along with me, to chase away the fake sorcerer . ”
“What do you need me to do? Give him a beating?” Xiao Ma clenched his fists, “I might not be good at hunting spirits, but I"m all about fighting . ”
Ye Shaoyang rolled his eyes and did not care about Xiao Ma .
After they ate lunch in the dorms, Ye Shaoyang took a long nap and woke up around one . Then, he had Xiao Ma accompany him to the School of Foreign Languages . No one could be seen in the schoolyard when they arrived . Puzzled, Ye Shaoyang asked, “Where did all the students go?”
“I saw them posting about it; the school wants all the students to stay in their cla.s.srooms to self-study . Even the final year students are not allowed out . The school stated they would be disqualified from the final year examination if they left . The school probably didn"t want to let them see the sorcerer and create more gossip,” Xiao Ma explained .
Ye Shaoyang nodded in agreement .
“Hey, Little Ye, there"s a cute girl coming our way,” Xiao Ma tapped Ye Shaoyang’s shoulder and pointed behind him . Ye Shaoyang turned around and saw a lady walking toward them . The lady was wearing a tight T-shirt that barely contained her voluptuous bust, while her shorts accentuated her long and well-toned legs .
“How could a student have such a great body!” Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma stared while they drooled from their mouth .
As the lady approached, Ye Shaoyang was able to clearly see her facial features . She had a sharp chin and a pair of large eyes, Hmm, why does she look so familiar? Ye Shaoyang rubbed his eyes and looked at her again . Suddenly, he realized something, “That"s Xie Yuqing!” When she got closer and saw that Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma were checking her out with perverted eyes, she yelled with great anger, “What are you looking at! I"ll dig your eyes out if you keep staring!”
Xiao Ma feared for his life, so he coughed and looked the other way .
Then, Ye Shaoyang asked, “Why are you here? And why aren"t you in your uniform?”
“I don"t want to be seen as a police officer,” Xie Yuqing explained, “I came here to check out the sorcerer . ”
Before Ye Shaoyang could joke around with Xie Yuqing again, someone suddenly yelled from behind, “Hey, what grade are you guys in, why aren"t you in cla.s.s?!”
