Eyeball roll?

Kellen picked up Susie with one hand and easily carried her towards the confinement room.

"Let's go see that bald uncle, and then we'll go eat ice cream."

Susie replied, "Okay~♪(^∇^*)"

In the confinement room, the bald man was rolling his eyes and spinning around on the ground like a madman.

He was holding his own throat.

His soul floated out and was struggling with something.

Susie exclaimed, "What is he doing?"

Kellen replied, "I don't know, acting?"

One of his subordinates said, "He's been doing this for half an hour. He's not acting."

Another subordinate said, "Who knows, if he doesn't act realistically, how can we believe him?"

The bald man on the ground was about to vomit blood.

When did they see him acting? He was really risking his life!

He was going to die...

The bald man really felt like he was going to die, because he saw a man in a white robe floating next to Susie!

You have to know that he couldn't see ghosts normally. Before manipulating ghosts, he had to burn a talisman and temporarily open his third eye.

Now he not only saw it directly, but also felt a kind of oppressive breath from the underworld. This man in white robe was definitely not an ordinary ghost...

The bald man felt like his soul was being pulled out. He was so scared that his face turned pale. Paul's soul skin was attached by him. He didn't even know how it happened!

He was attached with soul skin!

And it was attached by his master!

Would he be done for today?

"Help..." The bald man's throat was hoarse, and he couldn't even say a word.

Mitch sneered, "Evil will beget evil. You didn't think that you would be attached with soul skin as well when you attached it to others, right?"

He lifted his hand, and the soul skin behind the bald man's neck flew out and struggled in mid-air.

Eric's soul was sealed, and the soul skin lost control and became restless.

If it escaped, it would have its own hazy consciousness and find someone to attach to in the future.

Mitch's eyes showed no emotional fluctuations. He just lifted his finger slightly, and a dark green flame suddenly ignited, burning the soul skin completely.

Susie widened her eyes and exclaimed, "Wow! Master is so handsome!"

Is this what Lucy meant by showing off?

She also wants to show off!

As the soul skin was burned to ashes, the bald man gradually regained consciousness and looked at Susie with a surprised expression.

On that day in the haunted house, he felt that this girl was extraordinary!

It turns out that it was because she had such a powerful master!

So, those few evil ghosts of hers were also given to her by her master, right?

The bald man no longer dared to play tricks. He knew that even his own master was wary of him, and he didn't tell his master about the few evil ghosts on Susie's body.

Sure enough, his master acted against him.

As fellow apprentices, why was there such a big difference...

The bald man looked despondent and, without waiting for Kellen and the others to ask, he explained in detail, "My name is Warren...I am Eric's apprentice."

"My ancestors were paper-cutting craftsmen, and the technique of making paper dolls was a unique skill that was only passed down to men and not women. I had a talent for it, and could make paper dolls that looked just like real ones since I was young."

"But my father told me that I shouldn't put the finishing touch on the paper dolls, otherwise, it would cause big trouble."

Susie couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why is it only passed down to men? What's wrong with girls? There are so many skills that girls are not taught."

Isn't it just making paper dolls? Can't you just glue them together casually? Why do you have to pass on this skill specifically?

Mitch explained, "Paper-cutting craftsmen belong to one of the Four Small Yin Gates, namely, the Executioner, Paper-Cutting Craftsman, Leatherworker, and Embalmer. In ancient times, people were always afraid that the dead would not find their way to the underworld and would linger in the world... so they used paper dolls to guide them and take them to the underworld."

"Burning paper dolls and paper sedan chairs to carry the deceased to the afterlife is also a way of expressing their reluctance and trust in their loved ones who have passed away. Since paper dolls are so important, there are also requirements for how well they are made, how flexible they are, and whether they are on the right path or not."

Kellen remembered the past.

In his hometown, it was customary for the son to personally make paper horses to guide the deceased father's way.

At that time, his grandfather didn't have the opportunity to bury his father in the open, but he also secretly made a paper horse.

He bent the bamboo into the four limbs of a horse, then used bamboo strips to weave the horse's head, and finally pasted it with red paper.

Listening to the simple steps, but what he made didn't look like a horse at all. When pasting the red paper, it was even harder to paste, and the sharp bamboo twigs easily pierced the paper, making it impossible to shape. The bamboo strips even broke before they were used... So, this skill does indeed require some inheritance.

"Then what?" Susie continued to ask.

Warren said, "When the paper person is finished, it will stare at its creator. Because when it is being drawn, the first person it sees is the one who draws it. So it's also a tradition not to give the paper person eyes, but when I was young and curious, I did it anyway..."

The bald man could never forget that night when he secretly gave the paper person eyes.

As soon as the eyes of the paper person took shape, he felt that something was staring at him. The next day, he had a high fever that wouldn't go away, but he managed to go with his father to the mountains and encountered a female ghost standing still in the woods.

"My dad took me to find the immortal witch. I don't know how many rituals we went through to get rid of that paper person. After that, I gradually embarked on this path."

"Paper people are used in the worship of the dead. Once they enter the underworld, they are destined to be enslaved. The resentment itself is already great, until I learned to use the soul of the dead to worship the paper person in reverse."

From then on, he made rapid progress on this path!

He drew many paper people and eventually learned to fold them into real paper people - a thin piece of paper that was easy to carry.

He went south and north, did many things, and earned a lot of money, until he met his master Eric in a broken temple.

"He was a vengeful person with a small mind. If he saw someone with great talent, he had to use them. If not, the only end was to be killed by him."

Under Eric's pressure, Warren reluctantly agreed to become his disciple, but he was actually half a servant.

"He gave me a bride ghost as a gift for apprenticeship, and I had to offer him the skill of soul skin... Later, he kept experimenting with exchanging souls with soul skin, and I kept running around, helping him find suitable candidates."

Soul possession didn't need to match the person's fate or anything like that. It just needed to be able to take over, and then live on in the other person's body.

It was like traveling through time and space in a novel, but the difference was that after pasting the soul skin, one couldn't live for more than a few days.

Because of this, they also killed several experimental disciples. As a result, he went to various haunted houses across the country, changing locations after each visit. As long as it wasn't too obvious, it wouldn't attract the attention of the authorities. "This is really stealing lives right under Yama's nose..." Warren said, "I have always been very careful, until I met you guys..."

Kellen nodded, realizing the cause and effect of the situation.

It could only be said that in this vast world, anything could happen.

"And then there's Mrs. Judith from the Francis family. What's her deal?"

Eric and Warren were caught, but Mrs. Judith continued to evade justice as a victim.

Warren honestly said, "Mrs. Judith's husband died and left her billions of dollars, but her health wasn't good, and she only had a few days left to live due to a terminal illness. She learned about the concept of borrowing lives from an old woman in the community, and then had the idea of finding a way to switch souls. She paid a lot of money to ask the master to help her switch into a healthy body. She had so much money and didn't want to die, so she wanted to become someone else and continue living."

Susie nodded to show her understanding.

Hmm~

If she had that much money, she wouldn't want to die either...

But not wanting to die doesn't mean you won't die. When it's time to die, you still have to die. After all, Master said that not dying when you will cause chaos and harm to others.

She had to go find Mrs. Judith and see if she needed help spending money...no, to see if she had done anything wrong!
