Chapter 144 There is another mystery

"Oh, so that's it!" Camellia smiled and looked at Xu Yingying without saying a word.

"Otherwise, what do you think it is like?"

Xu Yingying was a little upset by Camellia's words.

After saying that, Xu Yingying prepared to turn around and leave.

Unfortunately, before she had taken a few steps, she accidentally stepped on a stone and sprained her ankle.

"what--"

Xu Yingying let out a violent scream and then fell to the ground.

Li Siqi, who was inside the house, ran out immediately upon hearing the noise. He saw Xu Yingying lying on the ground and quickly helped her up.

"What's wrong with you? Are you okay, Brother Xu?" Li Siqi asked with concern.

Xu Yingying's facial features were tightly twisted together. She pointed at her ankle and said, "My foot, my foot seems to be twisted."

Li Siqi's expression changed when he heard that. "Ah? Let me check you out."

After checking, Li Siqi found that Xu Yingying just fell and sprained her ankle, and it was nothing serious.

"You sprained your ankle. I guess you need to rest for a few days. How about this! How about I go investigate the case and you stay here and rest for a few days?"

Li Siqi thought for a while and asked tentatively.

Xu Yingying was immediately unhappy when she heard this and decisively refused: "No, I have to go with you."

"Will this work?" Li Siqi asked a little worriedly.

"It's possible." Xu Yingying emphasized, and at the same time her tone was full of determination.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and Li Siqi finally set up his formation first.

"Okay! Then I'll carry you after we get off the carriage."

"Okay." Seeing that Li Siqi agreed, Xu Yingying nodded happily.

At the same time, Chen Xiaoyu, who was standing by, learned that Xu Yingying and Li Siqi were about to go to her house to continue investigating her case. She became very excited and jumped along with the carriage.

As the carriage swayed, Li Siqi and Xu Yingying soon arrived at Chen Xiaoyu's home again.

"Slow down." Li Siqi carried Xu Yingying down from the carriage.

This is the first time Camellia has come to Chen Xiaoyu's home.

As soon as she entered, Camellia felt uncomfortable all over. Xu Yingying next to her also felt that this house exuded a very strange feeling and she felt uncomfortable everywhere.

But even so, she and Li Siqi searched the house thoroughly.

Suddenly, Li Siqi pointed at the open closet and shouted to Xu Yingying as if something had happened: "Look at this!"

Xu Yingying, who was standing by, leaned over and discovered that there was a secret passage in the closet in Chen Xiaoyu's boudoir.

The two looked at each other, and Xu Yingying said without hesitation: "Let's go and take a look this afternoon!"

"Okay!" Li Siqi nodded.

In this way, the two of them groped their way forward along the secret passage underground.

After a while, a small house of more than ten square meters appeared in front of them. It was a secret room.

In the middle of the secret room there is a furnace that is nearly two meters long.

"This is..." Li Siqi asked puzzledly as he looked at the cauldron in front of him.

Xu Yingying, who was standing by, recognized it immediately and said, "This is the cauldron for refining ghosts. Oops, we've been tricked. Let's get out of here!"

Xu Yingying yelled.

After hearing this, Li Siqi quickly picked up Xu Yingying by the waist and ran towards the exit, but unfortunately he was still a step too late.

I saw that the exit of the secret passage had been sealed at some point in time.

What was there for them to not understand now? The owner of the dark room had set up such a big trap today just to lure them in.

However, Xu Yingying still couldn't figure out what the other party's purpose was, whether it was to prevent them from finding out the truth or had other purposes.

Before Xu Yingying had time to think deeply, her thoughts were interrupted by Chen Xiaoyu.

"Ah - help me."

Chen Xiaoyu's soul was sucked towards the cauldron by an inexplicable force.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying hurried forward to interrupt the force and capture Chen Xiaoyu's soul back.

Only then did Xu Yingying understand that the owner of this secret passage had set up such a big game just to invite Chen Xiaoyu to join, and most likely wanted to devour Chen Xiaoyu's soul.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying used her unique skills without hesitation. She filled the place where Li Siqi was with talismans.

Then she picked up the red string and tied her arms and Chen Xiaoyu's arms together tightly.

"Stand in the circle and don't move!" Xu Yingying instructed Li Siqi.

Li Siqi was somewhat confused by Xu Yingying's sudden actions and words, but he still nodded and did as he was told.

"it is good."

Just like that, the air suddenly became quiet for a while.

Yes, the two sides are at a stalemate.

But after a while, the opponent couldn't hold back and attacked Xu Yingying and Li Siqi again.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up in the dark room and attacked Xu Yingying and Li Siqi.

Li Siqi bent down and tried his best to protect the talismans, while Xu Yingying also held Chen Xiaoyu's arm tightly for fear that she would be blown away by the wind.

Xu Yingying saw that the situation was not right and they were vaguely at a disadvantage.

She immediately shouted to Li Siqi, "Hit that furnace with the dart."

Upon receiving the news, Li Siqi took out a dart from his pocket and threw it at the cauldron without hesitation.

"Ding-dong-"

With the sound of iron collision, cracks suddenly appeared on the body of the furnace.

With a "bang", the cauldron broke into two pieces.

Seeing that their beloved cauldron was broken, the people who were hiding in the dark and attacking Xu Yingying and others could no longer hold back.

A man wearing a mask appeared in front of everyone.

Xu Yingying and Li Siqi looked at each other. They searched their minds but could not find any information about this person.

"Okay, okay, my original target was Chen Xiaoyu, but I didn't expect to run into two people who didn't know how to live or die and destroyed my furnace. Now you all die here!"

The masked man yelled at Xu Yingying and Li Siqi.

After saying that, he clapped his hands towards the corner and said in a very arrogant tone: "Hahaha, come out! My baby."

The next second, a pale-faced man appeared from the corner.

He looked very strange, his skin was a sickly pale color, and blood-red whites of his eyes occupied most of his eyeballs.

"This is... Hanba! How could you have such a thing?" Xu Yingying took a closer look and couldn't help but scream out.

Wherever the Hanba appears, there must be a lot of people who died unjustly. The Hanba itself is made from the souls of these people who died unjustly.

"Not bad? You seem to be quite knowledgeable." The masked man was very satisfied with Xu Yingying's surprised reaction and nodded in praise.

"Baby, go and teach them a lesson." The masked man pointed at Xu Yingying.

"Roar--"

Hanba roared and rushed towards Xu Yingying and Li Siqi.

Looking at Hanba getting closer and closer to her, Xu Yingying couldn't help but remind Li Siqi beside her: "Be careful, don't let him catch you! If you catch him, you will be infected with corpse poison."
