Chapter 3368: Why Didn’t You Stay

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

If it was a house and the house was a villa that looked luxurious, beautiful, and more three-dimensional…

The person in the underworld would receive a better house; they would actually get a villa.

It was the same for food and drinks.

The more realistic they looked, the better they would taste in the underworld.

This was the first time Luo Dingzhen had ever seen anyone look up the pictures online, print them, and burn them as offerings to the dead.

Would that be the same?

Xie Jiling knew everything. She should know the proper way to do this!

Luo Dingzhen really thought that Xie Jiling was someone he should hold onto and never let go of.

But he didn’t want Xie Jiling to offend the soul reapers because of such a trivial matter.

Therefore, Luo Dingzhen asked, “Master Xie, have you ever burnt offerings before?”

“I have. I burn offerings frequently,” Xie Jiling said, “The soul reapers love to eat and drink the offerings I burn for them. Whenever they see me, they would ask me to burn some for them.”

Luo Dingzhen was speechless.

Luo Dingzhen had nothing to say.

Were the soul reapers ignorant?

“No, but I heard that the offerings you burn must look as exquisite as possible to achieve the best effect,” Luo Dingzhen said.

“That’s true. However, I asked them, and they said that the offerings I burnt for them were better than the ones that look exquisite. And so, that’s why I do my offerings that way. That saves me some money.” Xie Jiling said.

If it weren’t because she couldn’t print the papers in black and white, she would have printed them in black and white and burnt them as offerings.

The colored ones were much more expensive than the black and white ones.

Luo Dingzhen felt speechless.

Master Xie truly could not be described as someone ordinary! Hahahaha!

“By the way, Master Xie.” Luo Dingzhen said again, “Why did you say that to He Qingyang?”

“What?” Xie Jiling couldn’t remember.

Luo Dingzhen then answered, “You said that he would need it in the future. What do you mean?”

“I thought you were hinting something to him.” Luo Dingzhen added.

“Oh. You are talking about this.” Xie Jiling said, “Didn’t you hear about it from Lu Qi? The person who killed her was He Zhengbai. However, He Qingyang and Yang Lin helped.”

“I don’t know what Yang Lin did. They might not be able to find any clues to arrest her. But think about it. Who was the one who prepared the house where Lu Qi died?”

“If He Zhengbai wanted to kill Lu Qi, there must be someone who helped him with some small and messy things. He can’t solve these things by himself. If you say that the helper was Yang Lin, I won’t believe it. Yang Lin’s temperament isn’t suitable for such a thing. She isn’t that smart and careful. He Zhengbai definitely won’t feel at ease letting her do it.”

“Therefore, I am more likely to believe that He Qingyang was the one who helped him. He Qingyang is cunning and has great endurance. He Qingyang and his son believe in themselves more than Yang Lin,” Xie Jiling said.

“Although that happened a long time ago, there must be some clues.” Xie Jiling said, “It took a long time for Lu Qiyuan to be arrested. The same will happen to He Qingyang.”

“No wonder. By then, he would be worried sick. He would need the cleansing talisman to destress.” Luo Dingzhen said.

Xie Jiling nodded.

She walked out of the neighborhood.

When she came here, she was tracking Lu Qi’s aura and walked all the way here. She didn’t use public transportation.

If Xie Jiling could save her energy, she wouldn’t have walked.

However, when she walked out of the neighborhood, she realized that there was no bus station or subway station near the entrance of the neighborhood.

Luo Dingzhen explained, “The people who live here have cars and chauffeurs. Of course, there is no need for a bus station or subway station around here.”

Xie Jiling had no words.

“Master Xie, if you are going back to school, I can give you a ride.” Luo Dingzhen said.

When he saw Xie Jiling glancing over, Luo Dingzhen was really scared that Xie Jiling might feel reluctant. He immediately added, “Don’t worry. It is free.”

Xie Jiling nodded and said, “Thank you.”

“Master Xie, there is no need to be courteous.” Luo Dingzhen said with a smile. “In addition, there are still a lot of things I must learn from you.”

Xie Jiling then followed Luo Dingzhen to his car.

Luo Dingzhen must have earned a lot of money these past few years. He was even driving a luxury car.

Since Luo Dingzhen was driving, the trip back was much faster.

Soon, Xie Jiling arrived at the gates of the University of B City.

“Thank you. I will be leaving.” Xie Jiling said with a smile.

“Master Xie, can I add you on WeChat?” Luo Dingzhen asked, “If I have any questions or any issues that I cannot solve, I can ask you for help.”

“Alright. No problem.” Without any hesitation, Xie Jiling took out her phone and opened her Wechat QR code for Luo Dingzhen to scan.

Xie Jiling then got out of the car and went back to her dorm.

She had just arrived at her dorm building when…

She saw her classmates waiting for her on the ground floor of her dormitory.

“What’s wrong?” Xie Jiling asked when she saw them appearing anxious.

“Jiling, He Yuliang.. .is in trouble.” Xie Jiling’s dormmate, Ren Linna, said. Her face was exceptionally pale.

At this moment, there were still some classmates who had yet to return.

School was starting in a few days. Some were still at home, and some were on their way.

Xie Jiling and Ren Linna were the only dormmates that were back. The other two dormmates would be back in two days.

“Jiling, I’m doomed. I’m in trouble!” He Yuliang was so scared that he didn’t even bother to think about whether his actions were appropriate or not. He rushed over and held onto Xie Jiling’s arm.

“Because you went into the mountains?” Xie Jiling asked.

He Yuliang started trembling. He couldn’t even bear to hear about this.

“Even if you are scared, you have to tell Jiling. If not, how can she help you?” He Yuliang’s dormmate, Chen Xing, urged.

Chen Xing and He Yuliang were the only ones back in their dorm.

During the night, Chen Xing was almost scared to death by He Yuliang.

He had no choice but to drag He Yuliang to the dorm next door.

The four from the dormitory next door arrived. With Chen Xing and Hu Yuliang, there would be a total of six people, which meant that the amount of Yang energy would be greater.

They would at least feel braver together.

“I…” He Yuliang trembled and said, “When I came back from the mountains, I didn’t sense anything wrong. I occasionally felt like someone was following me, but I didn’t think much about it. Because it was the Spring Festival, it was very lively. We were setting off firecrackers. There were a lot of gatherings and my family and friends were always around.”

“When I was on the way back, the feeling was still there, but I thought I was overthinking.” He Yuliang said, “It was daytime. Whenever I would look back, I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.”

“When we were chatting in the chat group tonight, it still felt the same. People from the other dorms came to talk to us. It was very lively. However, when 10 pm arrived…” He Yuliang said, “They all went back to wash up. Chen Xing went to shower. I was sitting alone on my bed when the voice of a little girl rang in my ears.”

“She asked me why I had left and why didn’t I stay.” He Yuliang trembled and spoke with a sobbing voice. “She even asked me to go back with her…”

“Where is the amulet I gave you?” Xie Jiling asked.
