Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 395: Soul-Eating Possession

Qingyinyuan is already quite secluded and filled with gloomy energy, and becomes even more chilly at night.

Si He ordered people to fetch water, but they took a long time to bring the water.

Hongdou didn't know the situation in this courtyard, but Bilian and Bizhu knew that several concubines had died in this courtyard, and it was haunted a few months ago. Later, a powerful wizard was invited to eliminate the evil ghost.

Although the courtyard was already 'clean' and free of dirt, perhaps due to its remote location, it had a strong yin energy. The mage had said so before. Every time they came here, they felt the gloomy atmosphere, so generally, they would not enter if possible.

So after they brought in the water, they quickly left the yard in a hurry, not daring to stay for long.

Hongdou didn't think much about it, she just thought they were trying to be lazy and were being irresponsible because their 'master' was not liked.

For this reason, Hongdou was quite resentful and wanted to be transferred away even more. The most important thing was that she felt that this new 'master' was too dangerous and she was afraid that her life would be in danger one day.

Originally, Hongdou wanted to contact her father whom she hadn't seen for many years. She remembered that her father used to be a manager in the Guo family. However, she couldn't even leave the yard, as if she was under house arrest.

The courtyard was silent at night. Bilian and Bizhu, who were originally guarding the door, retreated to a distance and did not dare to get too close to Qingyin Courtyard.

At this moment, Si He was bathing in the inner room, and Hong Dou was standing outside the door, thinking about how to move away from here.

But she didn't know why, although it was almost summer, it was very cold here, which made her feel inexplicably creepy.

Anko rubbed her arms and looked around.

During the day, there was nothing unusual about the house, but at night, one could vaguely feel that it was filled with a gloomy and eerie atmosphere.

Hongdou swallowed subconsciously and quietly left the house. However, when she walked into the yard, she was surrounded by darkness and silence, which made her feel even worse.

She hesitated for a while, but finally gritted her teeth and went back to the house, staying quietly in the corner.

After a long time, Si He finished washing up and came out, and saw Hongdou huddled in the corner, trembling with fear, as if she was frightened.

Si He raised her eyebrows and looked up at the beam not far away. The remnant soul had been quiet and motionless. Perhaps it was because the yin energy here was too heavy, and she noticed something strange.

When Hongdou saw her come out, she hurried over and whispered, "Miss, do you feel anything strange here?"

Si He glanced at her, then wiped her hair and walked towards the table, saying, "I don't think so."

She walked to the table, sat down, poured herself a glass of cold water and took a sip.

Hongdou followed and sat down at the table, not realizing she was a maid. After all, she wasn't the real master. She said with some trepidation, "It's so spooky here. Could it be a tomb? Those two maids left in a hurry after bringing the water, as if there were some monstrous beast or flood here. Don't you think there's something wrong here?"

Si He raised his eyes to look at her, "Even if there is a problem, what can you do?"

When Hongdou heard this, her eyes widened immediately. For a moment, she became even more panicked, as if she didn't know what to do.

Seeing Hongdou's frightened look, Si He, a timid little girl, couldn't help but hesitate about her decision. She lowered her eyes and took another sip of the cold water in the cup.

At this time, Hongdou said to her anxiously: "Why don't you go and ask the old lady tomorrow to change your courtyard, or ask the Third Aunt, the young lady's biological mother, this place... is really not good! Also, ask them to send more maids. You are at least beautiful, don't be like a submissive punching bag! Don't you usually have a lot of power and means? Why do you only use it against me?"

Hongdou kept saying a bunch of things, and if an outsider saw this scene, they would think that the identities of the two people were reversed.

Hongdou was a little anxious at this time, and after saying this to her, she forgot her previous warnings and threats for a moment.

Hongdou was thinking that if she could get her to leave the yard, she could find a chance to find out where her father was, and then...

At this time, Si He looked up at her again, with a slightly cold look in his eyes, which immediately made her shut up and subconsciously restrain herself.

However, when looking into her deep eyes, Hongdou felt an inexplicable fear in her heart. The next moment, she lost all her rationality and her eyes were dull.

Seeing that he had controlled the person, Si He took out a sealing and suppressing talisman from his pocket, then reached out and scraped some wax from the candlestick on the table with his fingernails, rubbed it on the back of the talisman, and then stuck it directly on Hongdou's forehead.

She thought about it, then took out a few silver needles and inserted them into several acupuncture points on Hongdou's body. After a while, the control over her confused eyes seemed to loosen a little, and it was obvious that Hongdou's soul was struggling.

At the same time, Hongdou's face looked a little grim, as if she was about to wake up.

Si He stared at Hongdou with a serious expression, trying her best to suppress her surging emotions. After a long time, Hongdou gradually calmed down and was under Si He's control again.

At this time, Hongdou's face was no longer ferocious, and he was once again like a wooden man, ready to be slaughtered.

Si He then turned to look at the beams not far away and said, "Come here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the invisible evil spirit on the beam slowly floated over.

At first, it seemed a little afraid of the talisman paper on Hongdou's forehead, so it only approached tentatively, floating very slowly.

Si He couldn't see the appearance of the remnant soul, but she could feel its slow speed. Knowing that it was alert, she didn't urge it.

After a long while, it slowly drilled into Hongdou's back of the head.

As this remnant soul slowly devoured Hongdou's soul, Hongdou's face suddenly began to become ferocious again, as if gritting her teeth. Her eyes were no longer dull and lifeless, but sometimes ferocious, sometimes painful. Her head trembled slightly, and her body was still unable to move because it was fixed by the silver needles.

Si He stared at it intently. Ning Ji had taught her about eating souls before, but she had never had the chance to practice. Now that it was her first time, she naturally had to observe carefully.

This process lasted for a long time. It took about half an hour before Hongdou slowly calmed down. When she was completely calm, the look she gave Si He suddenly changed.

At this time, Hongdou's eyes were a little cold, with some resentment and hostility, and she seemed like a completely different person.

Seeing this, Si He raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "Have you finished eating the cannibalism?"

At this time, Hongdou's body was completely controlled by the remnant soul. In other words, it could be considered as the so-called "possession".

Thinking of this, Si He's eyes darkened slightly, and she suddenly became absent-minded, her thoughts drifting away.

If this remnant soul continues to take over other bodies, is this another way to achieve immortality?

At this time, Red Bean said, "I haven't finished eating yet."
