Before Shen Ta could react, Sang Ming glanced at me and quickly replied, "Although that Taoist is strong, there is a limit. Moreover, in the face of the deep resentment of the dead, normal ghosts are unable to completely control him. In other words, the Taoist is completely unable to control Zhao Xue's death wish."

Zishan Ming explained it to me very clearly. Only then did I understand. This also explained why Zhao Xue's wish to die didn't appear at the bottom of the well.

I nodded my head to show that I understood. At the same time, I thought of another question. "But, if Zhao Xue's wish to die isn't at the bottom of the well, then where is it?"

The three of us sat around the table with a cup of steaming water in the middle. I didn't see Shen Tuo drink it, and my mouth was a little dry from the discussion, so I grabbed the glass and finished it in a few gulps.

That Taoist couldn't control Zhao Xue, so Zhao Xue fled with her death wish. However, this world is so big, where can we go to find what we're looking for?

I couldn't help but worry.

"Right!"

While I was concentrating on my thoughts, I didn't expect that Shen Tuo would suddenly jump up from the stool and heavily smash the table! I was so startled by him that I almost fell off my stool.

"Shen Tuo, what are you doing!? You scared me to death! "

I wanted to say something else, but I realized that Shen Tuo didn't have the energy to listen to what I had to say.

He stared at Zishan Ming and shouted at him, "You have forgotten what I was about to say! I'm telling you guys, since Zhao Xue is not controlled by that Taoist, it means that she truly has strength. Furthermore, since she is able to control her own death wish, that means if we cannot finish off Zhao Xue, then Su Xiao's and Chen Ziyue's souls will be devoured by Zhao Xue! "

When Shen Tuo finished his sentence, he was already roaring.

What?

Hearing Shen Ta's words, I almost jumped up like Shen Ta. Only Zi Sang Ming was still sitting on the chair with a serious expression as if nothing had happened. It was as if what Shen Ta said just now wasn't Zhao Xue but rather the food in the pot.

The reason why people like living in groups is because everyone likes to act as if they share the same feelings as others. When faced with unusual people like Sang Ming who don't want to go in groups with you, I naturally felt strange and even a bit embarrassed.

However, Zi Sang Ming's calmness also allowed me to quickly calm down. At the same time, I felt a little ashamed of my sudden jump.

"So, what's the remedy?"

Zi Sang Ming thought for a moment and finally asked the most important question.

"You are from the Underworld, don't you understand that you want to die?"

I'm a bit curious, at this moment, Zi Sang Ming seems like an outsider who doesn't know anything, he actually lowered his head and asked Shen Tuo.

Zi Sang Ming glanced at me and finally told me the answer helplessly.

"The death wish was created by you people. It has nothing to do with ghosts. This King naturally does not know."

I then remembered that at the bottom of the well, Zishan Ming told me that this thing was invented by those ruthless ancient magicians just to live forever. So, what was the difference between this and exchanging one's life for another?

"That's right, this thing isn't something that belongs to them in the underworld. To put it bluntly, those Warlocks only hope to use the years that these dead people should have lived to attempt to graft onto their own timeline. However, this kind of trick to take advantage of a tree wouldn't work even from the looks of it now."

It turned out that all of this was just a whim of the ancients.

"Right now, our only method is to quickly find Zhao Xue's death wish and deal with it. Otherwise, if we wait until Zhao Xue devours the souls of the other two girls, then her strength will surpass our imaginations. It will be difficult to deal with her!"

Shen Ta's voice became lower and lower. Evidently, he didn't have much confidence in being able to find Zhao Xue's death wish.

"Not only did This King and Yan Nuo not find Zhao Xue's wish to die, but they also did not find her corpse at the bottom of the well. Are you sure you found the right place?"

Zishan Ming's question stunned me a little. After all, we only heard the story of Zhao Xue from the beginning to the end. As for the truth behind it, we can only rely on Bai Weiwei's conscience.

However, there was another important point. That was the location of the well.

It was true that we had to go through every other possible place one by one to find this suburb, and if there was a flaw in it that eventually led us to the wrong place, then why did this place just happen to be in danger and have a well? Moreover, this well was also hiding the truth.

The chance of such a coincidence happening was almost certain to be zero, unless all the suburbs of Bai Weiwei's hometown had a well, and all the wells just happened to have a Daoist priest that collected the spirits of the dead.

Of course, this was impossible.

If that's the case, then the location we're looking for should be correct. Then why isn't there Zhao Xue's corpse? What went wrong?

When I saw that my thoughts could not go on any longer, I changed my way of thinking, abandoning the end, and began to think again from the beginning of the event.

In the beginning, it was me who found Chen Ziyue's corpse in the school's artificial lake, then it was Su Xiao who was killed in the hospital, Bai Yating who was killed on the train, and Bai Weiwei who was also almost killed by Zhao Xue at Shen Tuo's house.

'Could there be a connection between them? '

In an instant, all the information in my head became a mess. It was as if all the words in my head had been thrown into disarray by an unknown force and were flying about in my mind.

My mind was in a mess as I shook my head vigorously. Suddenly, an idea appeared in my mind.

I looked at Zishan Ming and then at Shen Ta, not knowing how to say it. Because even in my own eyes, the idea seemed absurd.

Zi Sang Ming saw through my troubled expression and stared at me without moving for a long time. I felt a little guilty from his gaze and wanted to look away, but at this moment, Zi Sang Ming grabbed my hand that was on the table and said softly, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Shen Tuo, who was deep in thought, finally noticed that my expression wasn't good. I nodded my head in embarrassment and mumbled, "Do you guys think that corpses can be moved? For example, through Zhao Xue's strength, or some other power that we don't know yet? "

When I said this sentence, I was afraid of being mocked by Shen Tuo. However, not only did Shen Tuo not laugh at me, he even narrowed his eyes and leaned back. It wasn't until he was about to fall on the ground that he remembered that he didn't make a chair, but a chair without a backrest.

He quickly straightened his back, and the contemplative look on his face disappeared in an instant. His face was slightly embarrassed, so he could only lower his head and take out a cigarette from his pocket.

"I think your guess is reasonable. [Since we can find the one who did it, there must be some power that we still don't know about!]

"Moreover, with Zhao Xue's ability, she should be able to move the corpses." Before Shen Ta could finish speaking, Zi Sang Ming seriously added on Shen Ta's answer.

So, my guess is not a bit of wishy-washy logic, not a bit of wishful thinking, but reasonable.

My left hand's thumb was continuously rubbing the skin on my right hand. Zi Sang Ming couldn't stand it any longer and reached out his hand to pat my left hand. I looked at him and quickly let go of both of my hands.

"So, shouldn't we look for connections from the deaths of Chen Ziyue and Su Xiao?" "I think it's still mainly Chen Ziyue, because we don't know about Zhao Xue's actions before she died. I should say, we don't know anything about her."

Just as I said that, another idea popped into my mind. I looked at Shen Tuo and saw that his eyes were growing larger and larger. It was as if some incredible idea was brewing in his mind.

After that, Shen Tuo smirked at me. I vaguely felt that maybe I had the same idea as Shen Ta! Therefore, Shen Tuo and I simultaneously stood up on the bench, slapping the table with both our hands at the same time. Then, we loudly shouted towards the face of the table, "An artificial lake! The school's artificial lake! "

I couldn't help but be happy. Sure enough, I was thinking the same thing as Shen Ta!

I looked happily at Zi Sang Ming. He raised his head and coldly looked at me as if he was telling me with his eyes: "You're finished!"

It was only then that I remembered that Zi Sang Ming didn't seem to want me to get too close to Shen Tuo.

However, even though I didn't do anything wrong, I still felt guilty. Thus, I could only pretend that I didn't notice the change in his mood. I waved my hands in front of his eyes. "How is it? I'm smart, right?"

Zi Sang Ming rolled his eyes at me and continued sitting on the stool like a noble.

Until Shen Ta and I calmed down and thought of a countermeasure, Zishan Ming didn't say anything. He didn't seem to be used to this kind of bustling scene.

"Just guessing is not our way here. Shouldn't we go to our school's artificial lake and take a look?"

However, when Shen Tuo heard what I said, he immediately became troubled.

Originally, the depth of our school's artificial lake is uncertain, so if you want to enter the lake, there are only two methods: First, contact the school and have the school come out and drain the lake. Secondly, we will prepare our own equipment and dive down to search for it ourselves.

However, the school's attitude towards this matter has always been inclined to settle the matter peacefully. If we go directly to the school and say that we want to look for corpses in the artificial lake, the school would undoubtedly not agree. Compared to causing a panic, I'm afraid they would rather let Zhao Xue's corpse rot at the bottom of the lake and never see the light of day again.

However, if we dive down hastily and if Zhao Xue's body really is found at the bottom of the lake, then our diving equipment will definitely be destroyed by Zhao Xue's mana. Then, we will also die without a doubt.

Is there any way to do it?
