I work as a security guard at a cemetery, and I overhear the dead chatting about getting rich quick.

As soon as Lin Ye finished speaking, no one in the isolation room responded.

The bronze bell lay in the center of the Spirit Sealing Platform.

The size of a fist.

It is completely black.

It was completely empty inside, without even a bell.

But Lin Ye could hear it.

Tang Guofu's voice was trapped inside.

"Is anyone there...?"

"Let me out..."

The sound grew weaker and weaker.

The researcher next to him stared at the monitoring screen.

"The instrument still did not detect any spirit response."

"It never existed to begin with."

Lin Ye looked at the bell.

"What's inside is a human soul."

"Can you get it done?"

Don't ask me.

Lin Ye took out his phone.

"I'll find a professional."

Ten minutes later.

The All-Encompassing Scripture was connected to the isolation room's communication system.

Lin Ye recounted the whole story from the beginning.

This time, they explained it in great detail.

Two bodies that had recently died.

Stay for seven minutes at the same time.

There is no copper bell with a tongue inside the wall.

After the bell rang, Tang Guofu's soul entered the bell, while Zhou Jia's soul entered Tang Guofu's body.

Even the fact that his soul was almost shaken out of his body when he got close just now was not omitted.

After Wanling listened, the first thing he said wasn't the analysis bell.

"You're still alive?"

Lin Ye frowned.

"nonsense."

"I am asking if the soul is still alive."

"exist."

"Then you're pretty lucky."

Get to the point.

Wanling remained silent for a few seconds.

"Don't touch that bell yet."

"I already know."

"You know nothing."

Wanling's voice deepened.

"You haven't even learned how to guard the spirit, yet you dare to bring your soul near a soul-suppressing artifact."

Lin Ye was stunned.

"You didn't teach me either."

"..."

The isolation room suddenly fell silent.

The researcher next to him lowered his head, trying not to laugh.

Wanling finally spoke after a long pause.

"OK."

"It's on me."

Lin Ye leaned back in his chair.

"Finally, you've admitted it."

"Shut up."

Wanling was clearly annoyed.

"I'll teach you the 'Guardian of the Spirits' chapter first."

"Now?"

"Or should you wait until you're completely out of your mind before you start learning?"

This technique is much shorter than the "Return of All Spirits to the Origin" manual.

It's not used to improve cultivation level.

There is only one core thing.

The soul is "pressed" into the body.

When a person is alive, the soul and the body are naturally closely connected. However, when encountering mental shocks, possession, or soul-type magical artifacts, this connection may be forcibly torn apart.

What the "Guardian of the Gods" does is to strengthen this connection with its own spiritual energy.

Wanling finished speaking for the first time.

Lin Ye closed his eyes.

The spiritual energy in the seven pathways gradually slowed down.

It didn't go towards its limbs.

Instead, it pulls upwards.

My brow is slightly swollen.

But my consciousness is becoming increasingly clear.

That felt very strange.

He never feels where his soul is normally.

Now it's like suddenly discovering that there's another "self" inside my body.

It's very light.

It overlaps with every inch of flesh and blood.

"Don't chase after them."

Wanling suddenly spoke.

Lin Ye stopped.

"What?"

"You are searching for your own soul."

"Don't look for it."

"The more we search, the more scattered they become."

"The guardian spirit is not one who sees it."

Wanling's tone was unusually serious.

"It's to let it know that this body is its home."

Lin Ye didn't listen any further.

I simply followed its instructions, repeatedly drawing in spiritual energy.

A few minutes later.

The slightly floating feeling that had been there gradually subsided.

The ground beneath my feet.

The feel of the chair back.

Breathe.

heartbeat.

Everything became clear.

Lin Ye opened his eyes.

"It seems to have worked."

Wanling sneered.

"It's not even at the beginner level."

Is that enough?

"Why don't you try it with your life and see?"

Lin Ye stood up.

"OK."

"..."

Wanling cursed.

The isolation room was closed again.

Lin Ye put on his protective suit and walked three meters away from the bronze bell.

"Open a layer of the spirit seal."

The researcher looked at him.

"Sure?"

"First one layer."

The isolation device was opened a crack.

hum.

That familiar vibration swept over me instantly.

Lin Ye's mind sank.

My soul felt itself drifting away again.

But this time...

The spiritual energy in the seven meridians immediately tightened.

Like seven invisible ropes, they forcefully pulled that feeling of drifting away back.

Lin Ye stood still.

The researchers stared at the monitoring data.

"How is it?"

"We can hold on."

Wanling snorted.

"Now you know my stuff is useful?"

"They didn't say it was useless before."

You said I was squeezing toothpaste.

"Isn't that true?"

"..."

Lin Ye had already started listening to the bell.

The outer layer is a continuous tremor.

There is another sound inside.

Very low.

Once collected.

Stop.

Collect again.

Like a naturally formed rhythm.

Tang Guofu's voice was interspersed within this rhythm.

With each "conclusion," his voice would be drawn out a little deeper.

Lin Ye frowned.

"This thing is more than just a soul-shaking device."

All Spirits asked, "What did you hear?"

"It will also leave its soul behind."

"That's right."

Wanling said, "Most soul-suppressing artifacts do not simply scatter the soul."

"Otherwise, why call it Soul Suppressor? Let's just call it Soul Shatterer."

"Shock it out."

"Suppress it again."

Lin Ye stared at the bronze bell.

"Then why did Zhou Jia enter Tang Guofu's body?"

"You're asking me?"

"Don't you understand?"

"I wasn't even there."

Wanling showed no mercy.

"Check the location yourself."

Lin Ye actually turned around and asked.

soon.

The bed roster for the clean room was pulled up that day.

Tang Guofu's bed was closest to the wall where the bell was hidden.

Less than two meters.

Zhou Jia was later pushed in and placed on the empty bed near the door.

Lin Ye understood most of it after reading it.

The first and strongest soul shock struck Tang Guofu.

Tang Hun was blasted out and directly suppressed by the copper bell.

Tang Guofu's body was then empty.

The subsequent tremors also affected Zhou Jia.

She had only recently died, so her soul was already unstable.

After the escape, the nearest "empty shell" was Tang Guofu.

I stumbled in by accident.

Officer He frowned after hearing this.

"Can it be exchanged back?"

Lin Ye looked at the Wanling communicator.

"Is it possible?"

"How long ago did he die?"

Neither of them lasted more than a day.

"The body wasn't destroyed?"

"no."

"Then there is a chance."

Wanling paused.

"The soul of a newly deceased person still has a connection with his or her physical body."

I don't know what your era is called.

"We used to be called Life Marks."

"As long as they don't scatter and are close enough, their souls will naturally know where they should return to."

Lin Ye asked, "How do we get Zhou Jia out first?"

"Use a bell."

"She almost lost it because of this thing."

That's why we use it.

Wanling was in a bad mood.

"A knife can kill people, but it can also cut vegetables."

"Could you please stop using the kitchen as an example?"

"As long as you can understand it."

The plan was quickly finalized.

The two bodies were returned to the quarantine area.

Zhou Jia placed her body next to Tang Guofu.

The bronze bells should be kept at a distance of three meters.

Don't touch it directly.

Only allow the robotic arm to release a small amount of spiritual energy stimulation at the lowest intensity.

Officer He looked at Lin Ye.

"Are you sure you won't cause trouble again?"

"uncertain."

"..."

"So I'm here."

Officer He sighed.

"You're starting to sound more and more like Cheng Fang."

"Is he that old?"

I'll tell him later.

"Never mind what I said."

The isolation door is closed.

The robotic arm slowly approaches.

A wisp of spiritual energy was infused.

hum.

The copper bell did not move.

That soul-shaking force rippled out once more.

The Forest Guardian God Chapter is in operation.

Consciousness remained firmly contained within the body.

next moment.

The female voice inside Tang Guofu's corpse suddenly became disordered.

"mom……"

"mom……"

The sound began to float outwards.

Lin Ye immediately spoke up.

"Smaller."

The researcher reduced the spiritual energy.

The soul-shaking sensation weakened as a result.

Zhou Jia's soul gradually left Tang Guofu.

In the past, Lin Ye could only hear a vague female voice.

This time, however, he suddenly heard a deeper layer.

The sound of crying is crying.

Fear is fear.

But at the very bottom, there is a voice that hardly changes.

It's very light.

Like a timbre that everyone is born with.

After Zhou Jia's soul left Tang Guofu, the voice moved along with it.

When near one's own corpse.

It has clearly stabilized.

Lin Ye's eyes brightened slightly.

"stop."

The soul-shaking stopped.

Zhou Jia's voice trailed off for a moment.

Then it felt like something was gently pulling me.

It returned to its own body.

Lin Ye did not speak.

I listened for another ten seconds or so.

"Zhou Jia has gone back."

Officer He asked through the glass, "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

How are you so sure?

Lin Ye paused for a moment.

In the past, he probably wouldn't have been able to answer that question.

But things are different now.

He remembered that voice from the very bottom.

Even if Zhou Jia stops calling her "Mom".

They no longer say "Don't burn it."

As long as that voice remains.

He knew it was her.

Lin Ye didn't explain much.

"Let's deal with Tang Guofu first."

That's the real problem.

The soul of Tang is still locked inside the bell.

After listening to Lin Ye's description of the internal rhythm, Wan Ling thought for a while.

"If there is taking, there is also giving."

"What do you mean?"

"This kind of magical artifact cannot only take in and not come out."

"In ancient times, it was used to suppress souls, not to store souls."

"Listen to the patterns inside it."

"There's definitely a reverse side."

Lin Ye reopened his spiritual hearing.

Once.

Twice.

The third time.

at last.

Beneath that low, ever-converging hum, he heard an even shorter pause.

The contraction ends every nine times.

There will be a break in time.

very short.

So short as to be almost nonexistent.

Lin Ye raised his hand.

"Remove the robotic arm."

The researcher was taken aback.

"You want to touch it yourself?"

"Don't ring the bell."

He moved to a safe distance.

Raise your right hand.

A wisp of spiritual energy gathered at the fingertip.

Suddenly, Wanling asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Fix it."

"What do you mean by 'supplement'?"

"It's missing that half beat."

Wanling remained silent for two seconds.

"Take it easy."

Lin Ye smiled.

"You're afraid too?"

"I'm afraid you'll shake Tang Guofu into eight pieces!"

The ninth convergence has arrived.

stop.

Lin Ye flicked his finger lightly in the air.

A very weak shockwave traveled along the ground.

No bell was rung.

It just so happened that it crashed into that brief opening.

hum!

The bronze bell rang for the first time.

There is no bell clapper.

But it emitted a very clear chirping sound.

Lin Ye heard the force inside, which had been pulling inward, suddenly reverse.

Tang Guofu's voice suddenly burst out.

"Ouch!"

Lin Ye almost burst out laughing.

The sound of the soul departed from the copper bell.

I briefly floated around in the isolation room.

He then quickly leaned towards his own body.

A few seconds later.

A sound came back from Tang Guofu's body.

"Where is this place...?"

"Why is it so cold..."

Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm going back."

Officer He asked from outside:

"Both are correct?"

Lin Ye closed his eyes.

From Zhou Jia's side came a young, delicate, and steady soul voice.

Tang Guofu looked old and spoke in a low voice.

completely different.

But what truly confirmed his suspicions was no longer the gender or the content of their conversation.

It's something deeper inside.

Lin Ye opened his eyes.

"right."

"I won't mix things up this time."

Wanling let out a soft "Eh" through the communicator.

"Did you just hear a soul's voice?"

"You could listen to it before, couldn't you?"

"I'm not talking about what they're shouting."

Wanling paused for a moment.

"It is the soul itself."

Lin Ye looked at the two bodies behind the glass.

After a while.

"It seems so."

Wanling laughed.

"And what about your ears?"

"At least it's worth a little more now."
