Chapter 121 Invitation

There was a lot of noise in the corridor outside for a while, and I don't know when it finally died down.

It was late at night and Jiang Yao was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling above his head.

There was only a bed in his room, and no other chairs.

When he stayed at home and didn't go out, he could only lie on this bed no matter how sleepy he was.

He had already slept during the day, but he couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night.

"Deng...deng...deng..." The strange sound of footsteps began to sound again in the corridor outside and reached his ears.

Hearing this voice, Jiang Yao was too lazy to go out. He just turned his head and glanced at the door of the next room.

The mental power extended by mental perception does not cover a certain range, but simply extends in straight lines.

Only things that are touched by these spiritual threads can be clearly perceived by Jiang Yao.

After all, his mental perception ability is not a separate skill, but merely a prerequisite when the ghost takes over.

Perhaps, it was precisely because of this limitation that he spent half the night trying to find the thing, but even though he knew it was in his room, he still couldn't find its exact location.

With yesterday’s failed case, Jiang Yao changed his tactics this time.

Be it being possessed by a ghost, entering into a dream, or confusing the mind, under the current circumstances, the effect seems to be of little use.

After all, the so-called ghosts are generally condensed by pure spiritual thoughts and do not have real entities.

After an ordinary person dies, his or her soul will not stay in the mortal world for long and will immediately disappear. Only the soul whose resentment and obsession are strong to a certain limit may, under various coincidences, become a strange creature and remain in the world.

Jiang Yao's mental power is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but when facing a pure spiritual being like the Guili, he may not be able to be stronger than the other party.

With such a premise, the few tricks he knew were of very limited use when facing the unknown things in the house.

After all, the key to the success of his trickery spells lies in the target's mental strength. If the target's mental strength is stronger than his own, Jiang Yao will have to bear the backlash if he fails if he rashly casts a spell on him.

After the strange footsteps disappeared, the faucet in the bathroom began to flow again.

This time, Jiang Yao did not stand up to check, but curled up quietly in the quilt.

With his eyes tightly closed, he seemed to be fast asleep, but in fact, he was surrounded by circles of evil spirit under the quilt, and all the evil spirit that he had taken into his body before was released all at once.

After these evil energies were integrated into his body, after such a long period of adjustment, they had already been completely refined by him.

Normally, those evil auras were hidden in the body, leaving no trace of their existence. However, when Jiang Yao needed it, he could make them appear in various parts of his body in an instant.

However, once the evil energy wraps around his body, his face will turn pale and his whole body will become cold, and he will lose the body temperature that a normal person should have.

In this state, although his mind was clear and he could walk freely, his whole body no longer looked like a living being.

Even after he put away the evil energy and restored himself to original state, it still took him several days to recover.

In addition, if he transforms himself into this state when seriously injured, he will not feel any pain and the blood from the wound will no longer flow.

If he does not actively change his state, he will automatically come out of that state only after all the evil energy in his body is consumed.

This transformation-like state can still play a big role in certain situations.

After his first attempt to draw evil spirits into his body, Jiang Yao had already realized the existence of this state. However, due to the various side effects after the state ended, Jiang Yao had never truly transformed himself into this kind of Yin Sha body.

As for Bingzai, although Jiang Yao taught him the Tiger Evil training form, what he taught him were just some basic moves, and nothing about drawing evil spirits into the body.

The Tiger Evil training form, after being practiced to a certain level, has the effect of destroying evil and exterminating souls.

During the day, Jiang Yao walked around the market for a few rounds but couldn't buy anything like cow's tears.

In the middle of the night, the things in the house reappeared. With no other options left, he directly used the evil energy to transform himself into his current strange state.

The sound of water in the bathroom was still going on. Jiang Yao, who had been pretending to be asleep, moved his eyelids slightly, and his eyes opened a little.

Before he could make any move, he felt the quilt being gently lifted, and a body as cold as his fell into his arms.

Jiang Yao stretched out his hand and hugged her tightly, then turned over and pressed her under him.

Under the influence of the evil spirit, he could clearly see that under him was a beautiful woman with delicate makeup, shoulder-length hair, and a well-proportioned figure, who was in line with his aesthetic concept.

"Who are you? No? How could you see me? Touch me?" After a moment of surprise, the woman's face was filled with horror.

She struggled desperately, but her hands were held down tightly by Jiang Yao, and a stream of evil energy turned into chains that bound her tightly. Trapped in this situation, her struggle seemed so weak and powerless.

"You're still asking me who I am? You come to my house every night to play with the faucet. Is that fun?"

"Do you know how much water is wasted in one night? If you do this every day, how much more money will I have to pay every month?"

"I haven't settled the score with you for what happened last night. Tonight, you dare to come to my house. Do you really think I'm jealous?"

"It's only natural to pay back a debt. I know you don't have the money to pay my water bill, but it doesn't matter. I allow you to pay with your body!"

……

With a grim smile on his face, Jiang Yao threatened viciously.

Jiang Yao was very annoyed after being teased by her the whole night last night. He finally caught her, but he could forget about letting her go so easily.

The only thing that made him feel regretful was that the woman's strength was a little lacking. She could not pose a fatal threat to him and could not cause any disaster on the light curtain panel at all.

Otherwise, at this moment, his fist, which was filled with evil energy, would have definitely hit the woman's beautiful face hard.

"I have money, I really have money, big brother, I am willing to compensate you, can you let me go?"

The woman struggled desperately but couldn't move at all. Looking at Jiang Yao who was slowly approaching with a ferocious look on his face, she was so scared that she was trembling like a little white rabbit.

Unfortunately, her plea for mercy was of no use to Jiang Yao.

The night is long and it is already difficult for a person to sleep alone. Since this woman in front of him dares to get into his bed on her own initiative, no matter whether she is a human or a ghost, she can't pose any threat to him anyway. In this case, why should Jiang Yao be polite?
He kicked the quilt aside, looked at the female ghost who had been skinned like a lamb by him, smiled and pounced on her.

Ordinary people think that ghosts have no substance because they cannot be touched. In fact, their bodies are made up of yin and evil spirits.

After changing forms, since Jiang Yao can see him and touch her, he can of course do other things.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed.

Contented, Jiang Yao leaned against the head of the bed, took out a cigarette and lit it for himself.

Looking at the woman next to him whose body could barely maintain its shape and had become much more illusory, he thought for a moment, then waved his hand and took back the evil chains that were tightly binding the woman.

After glaring at Jiang Yao fiercely, the woman's body disintegrated and turned into thin streams of water, rushing quickly under the bed, and then disappeared into a pipe entrance next to the bathroom.

"It is said that a husband and wife will be bound by love for a hundred days. I showed leniency and let her go out of kindness, but she didn't even say hello to me. The world is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer the same!" Jiang Yao sighed after looking around.

He put away his evil body and returned to his normal state.

After being Ning Caichen, he felt that not only the amount of evil energy accumulated in his body had increased a lot, but he also felt clear-headed and even his mental strength seemed to have increased a little.

For ordinary people, the extra evil spirits in their bodies would not only kill them, but also make them seriously ill. However, this kind of thing was Jiang Yao's spiritual nourishment.

With his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, he began to refine the evil spirits like an old monk in meditation, allowing them to slowly merge into his body and strengthen his body.

By the time all the new evil energy was refined by Jiang Yao, a night had passed and the sun was already high in the sky outside.

He was full of energy and refreshed. He jumped off the bed, opened the door and walked outside.

When he was in the Jinxia Building, he didn't feel anything. But when he came out of the elevator on the first floor and walked outside the building, when he was exposed to the sunlight, he felt very uncomfortable, as if he was being roasted by fire.

"I used the Yin Sha body and absorbed too much Yin Sha energy at once. This is a damn aftereffect..."

In an instant, Jiang Yao reacted.

Cursing under his breath, he deliberately avoided places where the sun shone directly, and walked in the shadows of shops on the street. Only then did he feel a little more comfortable.

Jiang Yao walked into a snack bar and ordered a bowl of wonton noodles. He just took two bites.

"Jiang Yaozu!" Li Fei, who lived in room six, and another young girl whose name was unknown also walked into the store.

Seeing Jiang Yao, Li Fei greeted him, and then the two of them sat down opposite Jiang Yao.

"It's you. Who is this?" Jiang Yao looked at Li Fei and his gaze lingered on Li Fei's companion. He smiled and asked.

"This is my best friend, Zhang Jingwen!"

After pointing at her companion and introducing him, Li Fei looked at Jiang Yao in front of her with a serious expression: "You look as pale as a ghost, are you okay?"

"Don't disbelieve some things. The room number 16 you rented may be cheap, but it really has a lot of problems."

"The tenants on our floor more or less know something about that room."

"Every night, after 11 o'clock, how many people dare to wander around in the corridor?"

"You should know my work. For a while, I came back quite late."

"Once, I drank a little too much and was completely dizzy. When I walked into the corridor on our floor, I saw a young woman in a sky blue stewardess uniform dragging a suitcase past me."

"When I looked back, the woman was gone. All I saw was a little water stain on the ground, leading straight to the elevator entrance."

"After I sobered up, I was totally terrified. For a while afterwards, I tried to go home as early as possible."

"If this place wasn't close to where I work and I couldn't find any other suitable house, I would have moved out long ago!"

"You've only lived in Room 16 for two days, and you've already made it into such a mess. If you continue to live here, something terrible might happen. Listen to my advice. If you have the conditions, you'd better move out as soon as possible!"

……

Looking directly at Jiang Yao who was eating wonton noodles leisurely in front of him, Li Fei tried to persuade him with kind words.

"I worked overtime last night and was a bit tired, so I look so pale."

"Thank you for your concern. I'm really fine. I'll take a rest and I'll recover soon."

Jiang Yao temporarily stopped what he was doing, looked up, smiled and explained.

No one knows his own situation better than himself.

Now he is full of energy and high spirits, but he just doesn't look too well.

"Are you really okay?" Li Fei confirmed with a look of doubt on her face.

"It couldn't be better. I can kill a cow now!" While speaking, Jiang Yao rolled up his sleeves and raised his arms deliberately.

It’s a pity that his current physical condition is almost thinner than yesterday.

The arm is flat and there is no trace of muscles at all.

"What you can kill must be a snail!" Li Fei still had a strange look on her face. Zhang Jingwen, who was beside her, saw Jiang Yao's arms that looked a little bony and couldn't help but sneer.

"I'm not in a very good condition today. When I recover in a few days, you will know whether I am bragging or not!" Jiang Yao quickly put down his sleeves and laughed dryly to cover up his embarrassment.

"Anyone who has seen you before can tell at a glance that there is definitely something wrong with your body right now."

"We are all neighbors. I am just reminding you kindly."

"If you don't appreciate it, forget it!"

Seeing Jiang Yao's look, Li Fei looked helpless, sighed, and responded.

"I appreciate it, I definitely appreciate it!"

Nodding, Jiang Yao grinned: "I remember you told me that you were a resident singer in the bar. How about this, you leave me your contact information."

"I have always been somewhat interested in the entertainment industry. If the opportunity is right one day, I might start a record company."

"By then, you sign a contract with my company and I will make you a big star."

Jiang Yao was very serious when he said this.

Although he couldn't even take out 10,000 yuan now, that was because his identity problem had not been completely resolved and he hadn't put all his thoughts on making money.

After settling down for a while and completely integrating into the big city of Hong Kong, he will find a suitable opportunity and, after a few cheating, he may have enough money to start a record company.

"If you want to hook up with me, just ask for my phone number and tell me!"

"You even opened a company to promote me as a big star. Do you believe what I said?"

"You look so gentle and polite, I thought you were an honest man, but I didn't expect you to be so full of nonsense, not a single word you said was true."

Pouting her lips, Li Fei glared at Jiang Yao fiercely and responded unhappily.

Zhang Jingwen, her companion beside her, also had a strange look on her face. She laughed and agreed, "Our Feifei's suitors can be lined up from the beginning to the end of the street."

"As long as she nods, cars, houses, money, what else does she want?"

"Do you know why she lives in Jinxia Building? Let me tell you, handsome boy, Feifei is keeping herself clean. Her goal is to marry into a wealthy family!"

"If you really want to date her, I suggest you give up on it as soon as possible and stop harboring those unrealistic fantasies."

Although she said this in a joking tone, it really didn't sound very nice.

Although it was Zhang Jingwen who said this and not Li Fei, Li Fei acquiesced in this. It seemed that marrying into a wealthy family was indeed what she really thought.

But if you think about it, it doesn't seem strange that she has such thoughts.

Many of the famous celebrity singers have made it their lifelong mission to marry into a wealthy family. Even they are like this. Compared with them, what can Li Fei, a bar singer with no fame at all, count as!
"Okay, I invited you out of kindness, but if you're not interested, forget it!"

"I've finished my noodles, and it's time for me to go. I hope you can achieve your life goals soon."

These were just a few words spoken on the spur of the moment, and with Li Fei's attitude, Jiang Yao was too lazy to say anything more.

Shrugging his shoulders, he stood up, greeted the two women, and strode outside.
