Lin Wu frowned, carefully staring at the cell that was emitting white fog.
"I'm saying the truth." s.h.i.+ Qiuhong quickly tugged at Lin Wu, saying anxiously, "My grandfather is calling me again. I really hear it!"
Lin Wu nodded and said softly, "I know that. It's because... I also heard it."
"Qiuhong, save me..."
"Qiuhong, save me..."
"Qiuhong, save me..."
An elderly voice rang out in the silent mortuary. It sounded eerie and low, as if emitting a deathly aura from the netherworld.
"You heard it too?" s.h.i.+ Qiuhong couldn't help but feel stunned.
Lin Wu nodded, taking in a deep breath. "By right, only people who have connections to the ghost would be able to hear their voices. But why am I able to hear your grandfather's voice as well?"
"However, my grandfather is calling my name." s.h.i.+ Qiuhong felt perplexed and asked, "Could it be that you can hear the ghosts' voices?"
"Na, I don't have yin-yang ears or anything like that."
Lin Wu shook his head, then frowned, and said, "Moreover, ghosts' voices don't come from a particular direction, and your grandfather's voice seems to be coming from the cell. Why do I feel like it's a human's voice?"
"Human?" s.h.i.+ Qiuhong couldn't help but feel stunned. "But it has been five days since my grandfather died... Could it be a case of suspended animation, like those reported in the news?"
"How is that possible..." Lin Wu shook his head. "An elderly, staying in the cold cell for five days, would have died even if he was alive. How could he still have the strength to keep on calling out for you this whole time?"
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong fell silent for a moment before gritting her teeth. "What if my grandfather hasn't died?"
Although she knew that what Lin Wu said was true, she still had a hint of yearning in her heart. What if that amicable old man hadn't really died?
Even if her grandfather had turned into a ghost, she also felt that given his love for her, he wouldn't hurt her.
Lin Wu turned and looked at s.h.i.+ Qiuhong. Seeing that her gaze was very determined, he nodded and said, "Alright, then you can open it."
Anyway, Xiao Qin was next to him, and there was Liuli protecting him as well. Even if there were really ghosts, it'd be fine.
"En."
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong nodded nervously. She then carefully reached out her hand toward the cell's lock.
When her fingertip came into contact with the lock——
Lin Wu suddenly felt an eerie chill coming from the surroundings. He turned and looked at s.h.i.+ Qiuhong. He saw that her fingers, wrists, arms, shoulders, and other joints... seemed to have sunken in slightly. The shape of the indents seemed to be like many palm prints, as if there were many palms grabbing tightly onto her.
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong's face turned ghastly pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Those ghosts are here again. I can't move..."
At this moment——
"Get me out from here!"
"Get me out from here! !"
"Get me out from here! ! !"
"Get me out from here! ! ! !"
That aged and low voice kept on repeating, as though someone was crazily banging against the cell's door from the inside. The cell's lock also kept on trembling, giving out crisp sounds, as if something inside couldn't wait to come out.
There was even a low yet rough panting sound amongst all the sounds, like a low moan when one was struggling in pain.
"Can't move?"
Lin Wu frowned slightly and suddenly reached out his hand to grab the cell's lock at the fastest speed possible.
However, he had just touched the lock when he felt many cold hands suddenly grabbing onto his fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, and other parts of his joints. He wasn't even able to retrieve his hand, let alone opening the lock.
At the same time, the metal casing of the cell seemed to be like a blurry mirror, reflecting Lin Wu... as well as many other figures around him.
Although the cell's metal casing was too blurry and it was hard to see what these figures looked like, they were clearly the remnant spirits in this mortuary.
"Hey, are you still watching?"
Lin Wu couldn't help but grit his teeth and call out. He was unable to turn his head at the moment, but he was clearly calling out to Xiao Qin.
His situation was much better than s.h.i.+ Qiuhong. Although he also felt that these hands were icy-cold, he wouldn't be affected by the yin aura. At the very least, his complexion wouldn't look as pale.
"Interesting. To think that remnant spirits are moving?"
Xiao Qin's amused voice rang out from behind him. Then, a series of rapid sizzling sounds rang out, as if water droplets had come into contact with a seething hot metal plate.
Lin Wu saw Xiao Qin walking over through the reflection from the cell's metal casing. Wherever she pa.s.sed by, those remnant spirits would turn into streams of smoke and disappear without a trace.
In just a short moment, Xiao Qin had walked up to Lin Wu, put out her hand, and gently patted his back.
"Sizzle——"
Another series of evaporating sounds rang out. From the reflections of the cell's metal casing, it seemed that the remnant spirits around him had all turned into smoke and dissipated.
At the next second, Lin Wu felt that the many hands restraining him had disappeared. His body felt a lot lighter, and he had regained his freedom.
The remnant spirits around s.h.i.+ Qiuhong had also disappeared, and she immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
"You..." s.h.i.+ Qiuhong looked toward Xiao Qin in surprise. Although she didn't see any ghostly shadows, it was clear that the reason she could regain her freedom was due to this great celebrity 'Lu Shaoyan'.
She hadn't expected that this glamorous celebrity was able to do something like this.
A Maoshan[1] descendant?
A secular disciple of the Way of the Celestial Masters [2]?
A series of thoughts popped up in s.h.i.+ Qiuhong's mind.
Lin Wu turned and looked at Xiao Qin, feeling both surprised and delighted. "d.a.m.n, you're actually so strong?"
"They are just some remnant spirits and don't have many obsessions to begin with. They'll dissipate if you give them a little shock." Xiao Qin shrugged.
"Their souls have dissipated?" Lin Wu was stunned. "Aren't you too brutal?"
"I'm helping these remnant spirits, alright?"
Xiao Qin rolled her eyes at him. "After one dies, their spirit should be freed. To ghosts, their obsessions and resentment are all just cages that bind their spirits, causing them to be unable to rest in peace. I've depleted myself to help them break free, so they are considered lucky."
"Alright."
Lin Wu didn't think much about it. He once again turned to look at the cold cell that had returned to peace again. He then said to s.h.i.+ Qiuhong, "You can open it."
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong nodded, grabbed onto the lock, and was about to open the cell.
"Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry." However, Xiao Qin called out to stop s.h.i.+ Qiuhong, saying with some hint of amus.e.m.e.nt, "Are you sure you want to open it?"
"Huh?"
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong was stunned and asked, feeling puzzled, "I can't open it?"
Her words had just ended when knocking sounds started ringing out from the cell again. Even the lock was shaking, as if the corpse inside was struggling to knock against the door.
"If I'm not mistaken, your grandfather's corpse should have been brought alive by something." Xiao Qin said, seeming a little interested.
"Brought alive?"
A hint of delight appeared on s.h.i.+ Qiuhong's beautiful face, and she quickly said, "Then I'll let Grandfather out right away."
"The corpse is alive, but your grandfather isn't." Xiao Qin looked at her and then said casually, "Have you heard of zombies? Your grandfather's spirit has already dissipated, but for some reason, his corpse has become a zombie."
s.h.i.+ Qiuhong's face turned pale and she mumbled, "Zombie?"
