The Kuman Thong 2

As Zhuang Yuning spoke, she wept bitter tears of remorse, “I swear, if I knew it would become like that, I would not have fed it blood and raw meat… . I was afraid . Then, I came up with the idea of throwing the puppet away before it became worse . ”

So, I threw the puppet away when I traveled outside of the country . I thought it would not able to find me, but its soul returned, and it warned me to get its spirit body, the puppet back within a month . I don’t know where it is now, even if I did, I don’t want to continue this relationship… . ”

She looked up at Ye Shaoyang with pitiful eyes, “I did not intend for this to happen . I regret it . Heavenly Master Ye, save me, please . ”

Ye Shaoyang drew a deep breath . Finally, he had almost understood the whole story . Although Zhuang Yuning’s actions seemed foolish, at least she had realized the consequence early on and threw away the puppet . It was too late as she had lost control over her Kuman Thong .

Xiao Ma felt sad to see his goddess crying, so he tried to comfort her, “Don’t worry . Little Ye is a very powerful Daoist . That is just a little, tiny spirit . He will surely settle this problem for you . ”

Ye Shaoyang looked at Xiao Ma from the corner of his eyes,and smiled coldly, “Oh yeah, a little, tiny spirit huh?”

“It isn’t?” Xiao Ma asked, stunned .

Ye Shaoyang did not answer his question but asked in reply, “Do you remember the appearance the spirit revealed when I caught it?”

Xiao Ma looked terrified as he recalled and muttered, “There were sutures all over its face, and its flesh could be seen when the sutures burst open . What did that indicate?”

“That was its true appearance . I sensed that there were another few pieces of its soul in it . I am afraid someone used the Soul Stitching Technique to stitch ten malicious spirits according to the order of a human’s three Hun and seven Po to form a new complete soul . I have just killed a small piece of its soul, which would not bring much harm to the spirit . ”

“Ten spirits combined into one? Such a strange technique . ” Xiao Ma sounded incredulous . He paused before he asked, “How did it gain intelligence?”

“It is not as complicated as you think . The mind can remain as a whole without a complete three Hun and seven Po . ” Ye Shaoyang shook his head, “I am just guessing . We can only make a conclusion after we find the puppet . ”

As he spoke, he turned and glanced at Zhuang Yuning, “If you want me to help you, I hope you will not lie to me again . ”

Zhuang Yuning choked with sobs, “I apologize for my previous attitude . I was worried I would lose my job if this spread out . I am deeply sorry . ”

Even though Ye Shaoyang remained silent, he understood her feelings . He believed that if this had happened to another person, they would probably do the same; this was without mentioning the fact that Zhuang Yuning was only a young girl .

“Wait a second,” Zhuang Yuning suddenly thought of something and asked in a trembling voice, “What happened to the security?”

Xie Yuqing shrugged, “He was cut into half . ”

“It was me . It was me . I caused his death… . ” Zhuang Yuning cried out involuntarily .

Immediately, Xiao Ma passed her tissue papers and comforted her .

Ye Shaoyang waited for her to calm down a little . Then, he asked her to describe the whole incident . Zhuang Yuning told them while sobbing . After she finished telling her story, Ye Shaoyang heaved a sigh, “Don’t be too hard to yourself . Since he decided to sacrifice himself to save you, he would receive a karmic reward in his next life . You may help him in his funeral after this . ”

Zhuang Yuning felt a little relieved after listening to Ye Shaoyang’s words, and she nodded in appreciation, “I will nicely settle matters for him . But, Heavenly Master Ye, why were you not at the house when the spirit attacked?”

Ye Shaoyang shook his head, “You didn’t tell me the truth, and I was deceived by a female corpse that looked like you . We wasted our time tracking down the corpse for miles until a river blocked her way where we found out it was not you . ”

Xie Yuqing wondered, “Even if the female corpse looked like her, wouldn’t it be strange that you only realized it was not her after chasing her for miles?”

“The appearance was next in importance . The most important part was that the female corpse carried Miss Zhuang’s Hun Qi . ”

He paused for a while before he said confidently, “A spirit can kill, possess humans, or even disperse a human’s Hun Qi . However, no matter how powerful it is, it cannot steal a human’s Hun Qi as the Hun Qi is too heavy for it to carry . It is similar to a powerful sorcerer being unable to go through a wall . So, I suspect someone is behind this . He tried to lead me to the other place while he could instruct the child spirit to attack you . ”

His words stunned the three of them .

“Do you have any idea of the person behind this matter?” Xie Yuqing asked .

“I highly suspect the master of the Kuman Thong . Nobody can instruct a Kuman Thong except him . And nobody else will know the relationship between Miss Zhuang and that Kuman Thong . ”

“That means we have to find out who that master is if we want to close this case?” Xie Yuqing tried to follow his thoughts .

“You’re right . But first, we have to find the spirit body and exterminate it completely . ”

“What is a spirit body?” asked Zhuang Yuning .

“That is the puppet you kept in the cabinet . The puppet resembled a home for it to gain essence and cultivate . ”

“My cabinet… . ” Zhuang Yuning jumped, “How did you find out about that?”

Ye Shaoyang replied, “Do you remember the first time we met, I asked for your permission to have a look into your cabinet? I smelled a faint Spirit Qi, but I didn’t expect you to rear a spirit . I thought a spirit hid inside your cabinet, so I wanted to check properly . You refused . Next moment, you carried a plastic bag that was filled with the smell of incense ashes and went out . Miss Zhuang, am I right?”

“I can’t hide anything from you,” Zhuang Yuning looked at him with a complicated expression and muttered, “Due to the doubtful points you have mentioned, you came to the conclusion that I kept a spirit with me?”

“I didn’t know you had a Kuman Thong, but I was sure that you were hiding something from me . Besides, the subsequence things that happened proved that you must have some link to the child spirit . ”

Zhuang Yuning hung her head low, feeling embarrassed .

Xiao Ma suddenly thought of something and asked, “But the spirit did not kill her at once . What would happen if we didn’t rescue her?”

“It seems like the spirit was trying to bring her to a place . I don’t know where, but I can assure you that it is not some place that is nice to visit . ” Ye Shaoyang paused for a moment and turned to Zhuang Yuning, “Do you know the details of the master of Kuman Thong? Do you know where he lives?”

“I don’t know . I’ve never met him before . My friend, Xiaoying helped me to get it from Mr . Hu . According to her, Mr . Hu is an agent of the master . I have only met him twice . ” Zhuang Yuning shook her head as she answered .

“Do you know how to contact Mr . Hu?” Ye Shaoyang urged .

“Umm… . I don’t have it . Xiaoying helped me arrange everything . ”

“We can ask Xiaoying now . At least we will obtain some clues,” said Ye Shaoyang .

Zhuang Yuning gave an awkward smile, “I afraid we can’t . Xiaoying . . . she has gone crazy . ”
