Wu Ling's face was pale and she was sleeping with her eyes closed, which reminded me of the first time I saw her in reality. She was just like this...a corpse...

I was startled and stepped forward to take a look. I found that her chest was rising and falling, but she was not in a state of death.

Liu Miao had a gloomy face and directly told what they had experienced.

In fact, Liu Miao found no problems. They drove to the airport and waited in the terminal. They did not communicate before boarding the plane. Wu Ling seemed to be dozing off, leaning on the seat with his eyes closed to rest. Liu Miao didn't bother him. When it was almost time to board the plane, Liu Miao realized that Wu Ling didn't react well at all.

"There is no ghost. Nothing touched her. I didn't see any strange smell at all." Liu Miao concluded.

Nangong Yao stared at Wu Ling for a long time, "Her soul seems to be trapped by something."

"Where are you trapped?" Liu Miao asked hurriedly.

"Trapped in the body."

"I heard her voice. Her body is normal, and her soul seems to be normal too. She should be aware of this problem," Gu Mo said.

"What on earth is going on?" Liu Miao asked the two of them.

Both men shook their heads solemnly.

"Let Brother Qi try it?" asked the thin man.

"Don't act blindly. I still don't know what's going on. Let him use his power. What if he gets killed?" Gu Mo immediately objected and turned to look at Nangong Yao, "I said, you don't see any problem at all. come out?"

"I only saw her soul being trapped." Nangong Yao shook his head.

Liu Miao sat on the single sofa on the other side, "Will..."

Several of us looked over.

Liu Miao covered her mouth with her hand, as if supporting her head with some difficulty. After he said those three words, he waited for a long time before continuing: "Could it be that his life span has expired?"

"You're talking nonsense-" Gu Mo's anger got stuck in his throat.

Nangong Yao pushed up his glasses, "The spirit is not a person, but..."

An idea flashed in my mind and I blurted out: "Porcelain doll!"

Several of them turned their attention from Liu Miao to me. The four grown men looked puzzled.

"Porcelain doll?" Gu Mo repeated what I just said with a rather suspicious tone. It's not that I doubt the authenticity of what I said, but that I doubt whether my head is normal.

"You mean, Ling's body is made of porcelain dolls?" Nangong Yao asked, "You can't tell that. Isn't it a magic weapon?"

"No, it's a porcelain doll! Well, it can also be regarded as a magic weapon, like a cursed... toy..." When I said the last two words, it became extremely difficult to pronounce them.

The way several people looked at me changed.

"Isn't it?"

"real?"

Shouzi and Gu Mo spoke first.

Nangong Yao and Liu Miao just looked at the unconscious Wu Ling in silence.

"So, it has nothing to do with lifespan. She may have been affected by that toy spirit." Nangong Yao said, with a hint of relaxation in his tone.

"Isn't this good news?" Gu Mo said.

"We can't change a person's lifespan, but there are still ways to kill a spirit." Nangong Yao looked at the problem from this perspective.

"It's easier to change your life span." Gu Mo said seriously and pointed at me.

"That ability may have other unknown side effects. Lynch's previous efforts to reverse things were all for the purpose of eliminating them, right?" Nangong Yao retorted with reason, "The side effects of some abilities will remain dormant for a long time."

This left me and the thin man speechless.

"Are you sure it's that spirit?" Liu Miao asked. He still doesn’t know about our encounter with Lu Qiaolan.

Gu Mo introduced him and asked him about his cell phone.

From Wu Ling's coat pocket, we found a mobile phone that turned off automatically.

"The battery is out." Gu Mo nodded. This was a guess he told me. He guessed it.

The phone was plugged into the charger, and Gu Mo was still talking about our experience of meeting Lu Qiaolan.

The phone was turned on and missed calls were displayed.

I saw the battery level on it, "There's still half a charge left."

Even with fast charging, it is impossible to charge to 50% as soon as it is plugged in.

"Leakage? Is it broken?" Gu Mo studied the phone, "It has been used for a long time. An old model from many years ago."

"Isn't this the time to study this?" Liu Miao interrupted, "The only clues you know are toys, nursery rhymes, and an undetermined direction to the northeast?"

"That's probably it. I can't be sure about the nursery rhyme. It's probably an illusion created by the toy spirit." Nangong Yao added.

"I said, if Ling is like this, should those bears be like this too? Are they very strong?" Gu Mo said suddenly.

I looked at Gu Mo and it took me a few seconds to understand what Gu Mo meant. This is a possibility I've always wanted to avoid.

"If they feel the control of the toy spirit and know that they are going to kill the master they used to protect and want to resist, they will fall into this state, right? I know that they were sealed by the exorcist before. This state must be Not as good as spirits. They are not humans yet, they are just relatively unique toys. They may have become spirits, toy spirits or guardian spirits. In this regard, their power is destined not to come from themselves, but from human consciousness. It's definitely not as good as the spirits, but they're not that weak." Gu Mo said everything I wanted to say and looked at me, "That toy spirit seems to be targeting you. I’m kidding you, do you understand?”

"So, Zhang Xiaojun was playing tricks on me, and his previous behavior was also an act? They are no longer those bears?" I asked.

Gu Mo snapped his fingers.

"This is..." The thin man hesitated.

"Toys, games are their favorite. They were created to be played by humans. If they have a dark and negative psychology, the most likely thing they will do is to play with humans in reverse," Gu Mo said.

Nangong Yao added: "The game spirits I met have the same idea. Abandoned game discs gather the resentment of outdated and abandoned games, as well as the various negative emotions people have when playing games. People have negative feelings about video games. He would do something like that because of his negative views.”

I listened silently.

The thin man hesitated to speak again.

Neither Gu Mo nor Nangong Yao took it seriously. Liu Miao didn't seem to have anything to say on this topic.

I turned to look at the thin man.

I knew what he wanted to say, not just to comfort me.

"What you are talking about reminds me of something. And that nursery rhyme! Well, there is a ghost story. I wonder if you have heard of it? A little doll named Lina." The thin man asked, putting away the previous words. With a look of fear on his face, he said, "It's about the doll taking revenge on its owner."
