Chapter 578 The Shady Locust Tree Buried in the Foundation
Chapter 578 The Shady Locust Tree Buried in the Foundation
Now I understand why the guy Li Yunzi was keeping said such cheesy things at the press conference, like "I love you so much," and "Love is so great!"
To some extent, these are all the truths, but they are the truths under the combined influence of the fox spirit card and the corpse oil.
After Xiao Ba exposed her secret, Li Yunzi froze, her lips trembling slightly, and said, "Yes, I did use corpse oil!"
After saying that, she seemed to have all her strength drained away, her shoulders slumped, and she murmured, "I really can't take it anymore. He's the only person in my eyes and heart, but he keeps lying to me, treating me like a kept object!"
"I don't want to be a plaything, I want to be his legal wife. Later I heard from people in the circle that the fox spirits of Southeast Asia can lock in love and solidify feelings. As long as you burn corpse oil and love incense as offerings, you can make your beloved devoted to you."
"In order to have him all to myself, I asked for a fox spirit talisman and applied diluted ghost oil to my forehead every night before going to bed. I burned incense and knelt down to pray every day, just hoping that Ah-Qun would be sincere to me and dote on me alone."
"But I didn't expect that not long after, I would start to hate Ah-Qun. I couldn't stand him no matter what. This was completely different from what I had expected."
At this point, she looked at us with a puzzled expression.
"Want to know why?" Fatty Lin said casually.
"Why?" Li Yunzi asked, puzzled. "A-Qun cast a love spell on me, and I used a fox spirit talisman and corpse oil. Logically, he's locked me in, and I'm locked him in; we shouldn't be able to live without each other. Why do I hate him?"
"The reason is simple: these two curses, one locks and the other pulls, one gathers and the other disperses, are inherently incompatible."
Fatty Lin slowly said, "Deng Minqun's love spell locked you up, making you only have eyes for him. But when you worshipped the fox spirit and used the corpse oil, the fox spirit's charm dispersed the evil energy of the love spell that locked you up, disrupting the balance."
"Two malevolent energies were locked in a fierce battle within your body, distorting your mind and causing you to swing from one extreme to the other!"
At this point, Fatty Lin paused and said, "Normally speaking, a typical love spell only binds people's emotions and ties their fate, it doesn't make people go from one extreme to another. I suspect that the love spell Deng Minqun cast on you is not an ordinary love spell, but a love-binding spell specifically used by wealthy families to bind people's emotions and minds."
"A love spell?"
Li Yunzi murmured, then asked, "What is a love spell?"
"The 'Binding Love Spell' is a type of curse specifically designed to imprison a person's emotions and reason!"
Fatty Lin stood with his hands behind his back, adopting an air of superiority. "This kind of black magic uses a century-old yin locust tree as the base and the blood essence of the person seeking the curse as ink. The names and birth dates of the two people are carved on the yin locust tree, and then the hair of the person being cursed is wrapped around it and buried deep under the foundation of the house where the person being cursed lives year-round."
At this point, Fatty Lin stared into Li Yunzi's eyes, "In this way, this curse will take root in the earth's veins. As long as you live in that house, this curse will haunt you!"
"I understand, I understand everything!"
Li Yunzi's pupils contracted, and she said, "No wonder I've become increasingly deranged these past two years, to the point where I don't even recognize myself anymore. So this is the root of the problem!"
"Sister Zi, what I've said is just speculation. To find out the specifics, we'll have to go to your residence!" Fatty Lin added.
In just a few words, Fatty Lin used his persuasive skills to transform the information he obtained from Liu Lingling into his own speculations, and left a hook for Li Yunzi to take the bait, inviting us to her house to investigate.
It has to be said that Fatty Lin is truly gifted at conning people.
"Xiaolin, you have to help me, you absolutely have to help me!"
After regaining her senses, Li Yunzi grabbed Lin Pangzi's arm and stopped calling him Daoist Lin, directly calling him Little Lin.
"Let's go to my house right now. I won't be able to sleep peacefully until we find that sign!"
"good!"
Fatty Lin nodded and said, "Sister Zi, if I see something like this, I'll definitely help to the end. I won't just stand by and watch someone die!"
"With the two types of black magic weakening each other, it's not your love for Deng the Shoe King that's being harmed, but yourself!"
"Your good fortune and luck will be gradually depleted!"
"Thank you, thank you!" Li Yunzi said repeatedly.
"Alright, Sister Zi, let's go to your house first. The most important thing now is to find that piece of shady locust wood!" Fatty Lin said.
"Okay, okay!" Li Yunzi now does whatever we say.
An hour later, we arrived at the Sai Kung Kwong Lake Residence hillside villa area.
Li Yunzi's villa was bought for her by Deng the Shoe King. After arriving at the villa, Fatty Lin did not rush to go in, but instead looked at it from the outside for a while.
"Sister Zi, your villa is backed by a barren hill, and the waterway in front of it curves around it. This is an unfavorable location that attracts evil spirits. Even ordinary people living here are prone to misfortune, let alone..."
Fatty Lin stopped mid-sentence.
"What else?" Li Yunzi pressed.
"If there really is a yin locust tree with your and Deng the Shoe King's names buried in the foundation, this house will accumulate yin energy and lock in evil spirits over the years. Even good people living in it will have problems!" Fatty Lin said.
Li Yunzi gritted her teeth and said, "That damned Ah Qun, he never had good intentions when he gave me the house!"
"Sister Zi, I don't know if An has good intentions or not, let's find the yin locust tree first!" Fatty Lin said.
"Yes, yes, let's find the shady locust tree first!" Li Yunzi nodded repeatedly.
For Fatty Lin, the current result is known: the foundation of this villa contains a shady locust tree. The remaining task is to find the shady locust tree.
He took out his compass, fiddled with it purposefully for a few moments, and then determined the location.
After pinpointing the location, Fatty Lin pointed with his compass and said, "It's right here!"
What happened next was simple. Under Li Yunzi's watchful eye, Fatty Lin personally started digging down the wall at the northwest corner of the villa. After digging about a meter deep, a piece of wood wrapped in red cloth and stuck upright in the ground came into view.
The red cloth was soaked through, but it didn't have much dirt on it; instead, it looked very bright and clean.
"Found it!"
Staring at the locust tree wrapped in red cloth, Fatty Lin frowned, carefully using yellow paper as padding, and pulled the piece of wood out.
"This is my undergarment!"
Looking at the red cloth, Li Yunzi suddenly spoke.
"A bellyband?"
Looking at the locust wood wrapped in red cloth in his hand, Fatty Lin asked.
"Um!"
Li Yunzi nodded and said, "A-Qun used to love it when I wore this bellyband the most. Then one time, I couldn't find it anywhere, and A-Qun said it was okay, he would buy me another one!"
"So it wasn't lost after all; Ah-Qun used it to cast a spell on me!"
Li Yunzi's voice grew softer as she spoke, and a look of bewilderment appeared in her eyes.
I pursed my lips but didn't say anything. What was there to be confused about? Neither of them were good people.
