Following Lu Youdao, they came to a door at the end of the corridor. It was an old iron door with spots of rust on the corners. Yang Xiao held his breath and did not dare to slack off. He had a feeling that the director's secret was hidden behind this door.
Lu Youdao stretched out his hand and pushed lightly. With a creaky sound, the door opened and it was dark inside.
Yang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect that such an important door was actually... not locked. You know, almost every door here has a lock, because behind each door there is a secret that cannot be known to outsiders.
Lu Youdao walked into the room and touched the wall behind it with his palm. With a crisp "knock" sound, the dim light illuminated the small room. An old light bulb was hung from the ceiling by black wires. It was the only source of light.
The room was not big, only about twenty square meters. There was no desk or bed. There was a circle of wooden shelves around the wall, on which were placed various sundries, including all kinds of strange ornaments and bottles and jars, but most of them were boxes and boxes of different sizes.
Under the dim light, these things were shrouded in a mysterious veil. It was obvious that no one had moved them for a long time and they were covered with a layer of dust.
In the most conspicuous position are two old leather chairs placed opposite each other, with a low wooden table placed across the middle of the leather chairs. Due to age, the armrests of the chairs have been damaged, revealing the light yellow sponge inside.
Yang Xiao could imagine that in the past many years, there had been two people sitting and looking at each other in this inconspicuous little house. One of them was naturally Lu Youdao, and the other was Director Nalan.
The connection between these two people is deeper than I thought.
There is also a standing clothes rack behind the door, on which hang several clothes, including an old-fashioned leather jacket with a fur lapel.
There was also a black uniform, of an old style, the same one that the ghost he had seen before was wearing.
Lu Youdao walked in naturally, came to the back of the hut, and took out an old box from the wooden shelf. Seeing this, Yang Xiao's heart rose to his throat.
He stared at the box. It looked like it was made of wood, but it was hard to tell whether it was made of the rare silver material used to store the Resentful Eye. The box was most likely filled with a Resentful Eye, and a very special one at that.
At this moment, Yang Xiao also knew that the burden on his shoulders was heavy. It seemed that this Eye of Resentment was most likely the treasure hidden in the bottom of the box by the director or Lu Youdao, and it was given to him today after he passed the test. This was a great honor and a sign of trust in him.
When Lu Youdao walked towards him, Yang Xiao took a step forward and solemnly stretched out his two hands, palms facing upwards.
He made a move to take the box with an extremely serious expression.
"What are you going to do?" Lu Youdao frowned.
Hearing this, Yang Xiao was also stunned, and the two hands he stretched out stopped in mid-air, "Isn't this for me?"
"Do you smoke, too?"
Lu Youdao sat down on the chair facing the door, opened the box, took out layers of tobacco from it, rolled a cigarette for himself with skillful movements, and lit the cigarette by striking a long-handled match.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Youdao slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, looking at the gray-white smoke drifting away. The ignored Yang Xiao's brain worked for three seconds, then he walked over and sat down on the chair opposite Lu Youdao, staring at him unwillingly.
"You saw it, right?" Lu Youdao said in a deep and slow voice.
"I saw Director Nalan participate in a mission, but the mission failed. Two team members, a man and a woman, were beheaded." Yang Xiao described what he saw and heard in the shortest possible language. In front of Lu Youdao, there was no need for him to hide anything. This man had a close relationship with Nalan Shuo.
"Cough... cough cough...
Lu Youdao seemed to be choked and started coughing violently. He had no choice but to put out the cigarette butt in his hand and looked at Yang Xiao with complicated eyes. "Their target is the evil sorcerer Xiang Fengchen. The man and woman who died were both subordinates of Nalan Shuo. The man was the captain of the investigation team like you, his name was Yu Xingye, and the woman's name was Mingxi, she was the deputy captain."
"They were ambushed. The entire investigation team, including Yu Xingye and Mingxi, were killed. Only Nalan Shuo survived."
"That old ghost Xiang Fengchen called in a lot of helpers. In the end, except for Xiang Fengchen who managed to escape, the rest were killed."
"Originally, our people captured a lot of people alive, including several of Xiang Fengchen's disciples, but Nalan Shuo completely lost control after seeing that scene and killed them all. There were other brothers from the Patrol Bureau who wanted to stop him at the scene.
He was also injured by Nalan Shuo. Because of this incident, Nalan Shuo was demoted to Rongcheng. Ten years have passed, and this incident has always been an indelible wound in his heart. "
“10 years…”
"Yes, it's been 10 years. Ten years ago, Nalan Shuo was the director, the youngest director-general in the province at that time. What you saw in the ghost was Nalan Shuo's inner demon. He fell too deeply into it and can no longer extricate himself." Lu Youdao's voice was hoarse.
"Where is the director now?" Yang Xiao suddenly remembered.
"Don't worry, he's fine. He went to the provincial government for you." Lu Youdao raised his heavy eyelids.
Look towards Yang Xiao.
"For me?"
"Xiang Fengchen is a wanted criminal. Many good men in the Patrol Bureau have died at his hands over the years. You killed him this time, which is a great achievement. Your Chief Nalan has gone to ask for credit for you. If nothing unexpected happens, your deputy chief will not be able to escape."
"With this title, you can compete with Qu Muzhi. What you need to do next is to get the position of Commissioner of the Joint Office. This will be a new starting point in your career."
"We are old, and the future belongs to you young people. He sees hope in you."
“But I didn’t kill Xiang Fengchen. He was plotted against. If we talk about who contributed more in the mission, the director is much better than me.” Yang Xiao did not dare to take credit for himself and told the truth.
However, Lu Youdao just shook his head and said seriously: "That's not important. Just because you are willing to take the risk with Nalan Shuo, you are worth it."
"Mr. Lu, what's going on with the ghost in that room? How come it has Director Nalan's memories?" Yang Xiao asked.
"We took that ghost after killing a group of evil cultivators. We originally wanted to use it to resolve Nalan Shuo's inner demons bit by bit, but we didn't expect that his obsession was too deep and he couldn't resist the ghost's ability. He fell deeper and deeper into the illusion. In the end, I had to stop this plan."
"This ghost is very special. It is like a mirror. It can reflect the most unbearable and most reluctant past hidden deep in a person's heart. It attacks you with the most vulnerable memories in your heart. Once you are completely defeated, you will completely lose control." Lu Youdao explained.
"What I saw in the illusion were all about Director Nalan's memories, but not mine. This ghost still needs to adapt to the new carrier, right?" Yang Xiao asked after thinking.
"You are very smart. Today is just a test for you. If you can't even get through this, then there is no need to continue." Lu Youdao said bluntly: "This ghost is much more terrifying than you think. You are adapting to it, and it is also trying to understand you."
"I still don't understand, what's the point of letting me use this ghost as a sparring partner, to train my tolerance for pain?"
After going through so much, Yang Xiao was no longer easily deceived by sweet words. What he was really worried about was that the ghost might see the secret about the costumes, and this secret must not be leaked, even to someone he trusted.
Ghosts are not allowed either.
What he was more worried about was that Lu Youdao had a way to see his illusion, or that someone would come to this room again in the future and see his part of the nightmare through the ghost, which might contain the secret of the costume.
Lu Youdao did not explain too much. He took out a small book with a yellowed cover from his pocket, opened it and read: "The ghost walked from the 1st ring to the 5th ring before gradually slowing down, and finally stopped at the 7th ring. This proves that the strength of your mental power is close to the level of the upper level. As expected, the more difficult the task, the more significant the improvement of mental power.
You didn’t have this level before.”
"In addition, judging from the time you took to stop the ghost from turning around and the results, your ability to control your mental power is extremely high, at least above the ghost level, and it is not ruled out that your level is close to the top of the ghost level. This is crucial for you to control high-level magic tools."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Xiao understood that a person's mental strength and ability to control mental strength can be seen from his performance in the battle with the ghost. The last time he heard the word "control" was from Professor Cui who was sent by the Provincial Government.
Professor Cui is a very rare psychic tester, whose ability is to assess the strength of an apostle's mental power, as well as his receptivity and control over it. Professor Cui once explained to himself that mental power strength determines the foundation, while receptivity and control are skills.
To put it simply, the strength of mental power determines the lower limit of combat power, while the acceptance and control of mental power determines the upper limit of an apostle's future growth.
"Fighting with this ghost can enhance my mental strength and raise my bottom line." Yang Xiao suddenly realized.
"No, it only improves your mental power a little, but it can improve your control over your mental power in disguise." Lu Youdao raised his broken hand and raised it upwards, "It can raise your upper limit, so that you can better adapt to and exert the power of high-level magic tools."
Yang Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, this was too important for him now. He now had a lot of weird... high-level magical weapons, but due to various reasons, he could not bring out even one tenth or one twelfth of the power of these magical weapons. In a two-on-one situation, he was beaten badly by the ghost-level apostles. Even the old dean of Rulin Academy could not stand it anymore.
How can I describe that feeling? It's like a eunuch visiting a brothel and can only stare at the pretty girls around him with envy.
"You have a lot of good magic weapons on you. Believe me, this kind of training is very necessary for you." Lu Youdao said seriously, "Of course, there will inevitably be dangers, and such dangers are hard to guard against, so you can also refuse." Lu Youdao added.
"A real man is born between heaven and earth, how can he be depressed and inferior to others for long? As a deputy captain of the department, I, Yang Xiao, should train diligently and shoulder the responsibility of protecting the peace of this area. If I don't go to hell, who will? Let the storm come even more violently!" Yang Xiao slammed the table and stood up, speaking passionately.
"Captain Yang, you are not yet at the deputy director level." Lu Youdao corrected kindly.
"That's not important." Yang Xiao waved his hand and spoke passionately, "As long as I can do my part to protect Rongcheng, it's fine. Anyway, I'm willing to accept the training."
"That's great. Let's stop here today. You go back first. The ghost's situation is quite special. I'll let you know when the next training will start." Lu Youdao stood up, issuing an order to expel him in disguise.
This person never knows how to be polite.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lu." After thanking him, Yang Xiao turned and left.
It was late at night, and there were few people on the street. On the way home, Yang Xiao lifted his backpack up.
Then he turned up his collar to resist the cool night wind.
His mind kept recalling the scenes that appeared in the illusion, as well as what Lu Youdao said to him. The training that could improve the control over mental strength was too tempting for Yang Xiao now. He also wanted to see what was the most fearful thing in his heart.
Well...actually, it seems that there is no need to guess. It should be that the ghost girl in the opera costume is here and sooner or later, I will be skinned by her.
But Yang Xiao is not a person who gives up easily. He can't do anything to the female ghost in opera robes now, but that doesn't mean he can't do anything for the rest of his life. Now they have a relationship of mutual benefit. Before she changes her skin completely, the female ghost in opera robes will not let herself die.
As he was walking, suddenly, Yang Xiao seemed to sense something and turned back abruptly. Under the street lights, there were only a few people on the street behind him, and they were quite far away. Everyone was walking in a hurry and no one was looking at him.
After watching for ten seconds, Yang Xiao didn't find any problems, so he turned around and continued walking. Not far ahead was the apartment building where he lived. There were two buildings in total. Yang Xiao lived in Building 1, but now he headed towards Building 2.
After entering Apartment Building No. 2, Yang Xiao went straight to the public restroom on the first floor. There was no one in the restroom at this time, so he locked the door. Yang Xiao quickly took off his clothes, put on his theatrical robe, summoned the soul-catching mirror, and traveled outside the apartment building through the mirror in front of him.
He never believed in accidents and coincidences. The reason he was able to survive until now was because of his caution. Using the power of the soul-stealing mirror, he searched the area around the apartment building twice but found nothing. To be on the safe side, he went back to the room where he lived. He did not show up in person, but hid in the mirror world and observed from different angles whether there was anyone hiding in the room.
But after all the trouble, nothing happened. Yang Xiao was unsure. Could it be that he was too sensitive?
After checking several nearby rooms and the dark areas of the corridor again, Yang Xiao appeared and returned to the room. He went straight to the computer, turned it on and accessed the surveillance video.
Before, he asked Ximen Xiu to help him set up a line so that he could access the surveillance cameras near the apartment at any time. After checking the surveillance cameras in the recent period, Yang Xiao leaned back in his chair, frowning slightly. The surroundings were calm and there were no suspicious people around.
He also saw his own figure in the surveillance video, and there was no tail behind him. The passers-by behaved normally and no one paid too much attention to him.
But the more this happened, the more uneasy Yang Xiao felt. He had offended too many people, many of whom were difficult to deal with.
Today, either he was being too paranoid and scaring himself, or someone really came over. Anyone who could avoid his detection would definitely not be a simple person.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiao stood up, took out his laptop and stuffed it into his backpack, "No, we can't live here anymore. It's too windy."
Lu Youdao stretched out his hand and pushed lightly. With a creaky sound, the door opened and it was dark inside.
Yang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect that such an important door was actually... not locked. You know, almost every door here has a lock, because behind each door there is a secret that cannot be known to outsiders.
