Chapter 212: Water Ghost Sealing Technique

This abrupt shrill scream.

Startled everyone; how could there be a scream while cooking?

And it was a woman's scream?

Wu Xian drew his Ghost-Head Blade and carefully approached the big pot.

When he saw the scene inside the pot clearly, he burst out laughing.

Inside the huge aluminum alloy pot, the water had just boiled, the water surface was surging continuously, and heat was rising.

At first glance, it seemed like nothing.

But soon a bloated woman's head and two fat hands appeared in the pot; they appeared for less than a second before being scalded and screaming, then disappearing without a trace.

After two or three seconds, the woman's head appeared again, and then disappeared again from being scalded.

Not only was it not scary, but it was actually a bit funny.

This woman's head was the water ghost that had reappeared after being killed last night!

A ghost that had died once still had the strength to kill, but its ability would be weakened, its intelligence would be lowered, and it would become a monster that acted entirely according to certain rules.

The water ghost had the ability to hide in water.

To heat food quickly, everyone used a big aluminum alloy pot to boil a big pot of water, and so much water was just right for the water ghost to hide in.

So she took advantage of everyone not paying attention, turned into a puddle of water, drilled into the pot, and hid, waiting for someone to approach to drag them in and drown them.

But what the water ghost didn't expect was.

The water was getting hotter and hotter...

She couldn't feel the heat in the hidden state, but the rolling water would reduce her hiding time to two or three seconds.

Boiling water couldn't kill the water ghost, but it would make the water ghost very painful, so she would turn on hiding again...

So the water ghost started this funny cycle in the big pot.

Wu Xian excitedly called out to Zhu Shuhui.

"Old Zhu, come quickly to take pictures!"

Everyone in the room with cameras and photo cameras swarmed over, taking pictures of the water ghost appearing and disappearing in the pot, and the scene was very lively.

Tonight's action hadn't even started, and a small part of the task had already been completed.

After taking the pictures, everyone started another pot, letting the water ghost stay in the original pot; no one dared to use that pot to cook rice anymore, in case the water ghost struggled desperately and dragged someone into the hot water, which wouldn't be fun.

"Ah!"

"Scalding..."

Whenever the water ghost made an ethereal scream.

Everyone would smile knowingly.

On the terrifying Wonder Island, this was a very rare bit of fun.

It wasn't just a pleasant mood.

And everyone had also found a way to use water safely on Wonder Island.

That was the boiling water sealing method!

When large-scale water use was needed, one only needed to start a pot and boil water to seal the water ghost.

Although there were some small twists and turns.

But the food was still heated in another pot.

Worker Liu Kai was the first to rush up, holding two boxes of food, and couldn't wait to start eating; he was scalded in the throat by the hot food several times, but he still didn't have any intention of stopping.

He was the hungriest one among everyone.

He had been possessed by the possessing ghost for a day, and the possessing ghost naturally wouldn't kindly let him eat; his ability to hold on until now was already a firm will.

If Miao Shi hadn't been parasitized by the ghost in the belly, he would definitely have been the one parasitized.

Suddenly.

Liu Kai, who was wolfing down food, heard a drifting voice.

"Hungry, I'm as hungry as you; can you send me some food? I'm at..."

Liu Kai, whose eyes were almost green with hunger, had no time to send food to others?

"Get lost, I don't have time!"

He scolded in a low voice, and the voice didn't appear again.

Soon Liu Kai finished the two boxes of food and touched his belly with satisfaction; people who hadn't experienced extreme hunger could hardly imagine how satisfied he was now.

But he had only been happy for ten seconds when he vaguely felt something was wrong.

Who was the voice that asked him to send food just now?

Now everyone had food to eat, so how could someone still want him to send food?

Was that ethereal, drifting, weak voice really something a human could make?

He looked around nervously.

He saw Miao Shi's belly bulging up, and the ghost in the belly's face turned toward him: "Hungry, I haven't eaten enough; can you give me some food?"

Liu Kai felt relieved.

It turned out that this was asked by the ghost in the belly just now; although the voice was slightly different, Liu Kai still turned the page on this matter.

Now it wasn't dark yet, it belonged to the daytime, relatively safe, and there shouldn't be any other ghosts that could make trouble...

After eating and drinking their fill.

Everyone started to burn the corpses; they burned all the corpses they could find uniformly to avoid ghosts using the corpses to make trouble.

When burning the corpses.

Wu Xian took the initiative to move the corpses and observed them simply by the way.

He was surprised to find that two corpses died strangely!

They were the fat senior sister Zhen Xiaoling and the female secretary.

Zhen Xiaoling had many wounds on her body, a full several dozen, but these wounds were messy and disorderly, many stabbed in the same place, and some peripheral wounds were very shallow, just piercing the skin and flesh.

One look and it was obvious the stabber didn't kill often, and was relatively weak.

So it shouldn't be a ghost; if it were a ghost, the wounds wouldn't be so shallow.

As for who the murderer was...

Wu Xian turned his head and glanced at the thin junior sister Li Wangyou.

She looked calm, but her eyes kept sneaking toward the corpse, and there were some bloodstains on her body.

No running away!

It was her!

Li Wangyou killing Zhen Xiaoling didn't surprise Wu Xian at all.

At the bridge hole at the very beginning, it was clearly only Zhen Xiaoling who ate a lot, but it was Li Wangyou who paid.

In the container, everyone was cut by the meat-cutting ghost, but the meat-cutting ghost used a small blade, and only Zhen Xiaoling had a larger wound on her face.

From that time on, Wu Xian determined that Li Wangyou had murderous intent toward Zhen Xiaoling.

The second problematic corpse was Yan Ting's second female secretary.

According to Han Ke's statement.

Last night they were hunted by Jiang Xiuping, so they all scattered, and the female secretary was also killed by Jiang Xiuping.

But judging from the corpse, the other two people killed by Jiang Xiuping had very large and irregular wounds on their bodies, bloody and blurry, making people not dare to look closely.

And the person who killed Jiang Xiuping...

Was very professional!

The wounds were very regular, crisp and neat, with every blade aimed at the vital point.

"This person could clearly kill with one blow, why use so many blades..."

"Is it showing off skills, or enjoying it?"

"Han Ke..."

Wu Xian didn't look back.

But he guessed Han Ke should be looking at him.

Wu Xian was expressionless, and together with Shi Ji, threw the corpse onto the firewood pile, not telling others about his discovery, but seeing through it without saying it.

Just as Han Ke said before, in the blessed land, no one had the patience to investigate the cause of death in detail.

Even Wu Xian was the same.

He had never liked detective work from beginning to end, otherwise he wouldn't have taken down his own sign and thrown it into the trash can after coming out of the blessed land for the first time.

Perhaps Li Wangyou was a natural-born murderer.

Perhaps Li Wangyou was simply bullied to the point of rebounding, thus fighting back in despair.

But Wu Xian had no intention to investigate this; she shouldn't kill again later, and wouldn't add trouble to himself...

As for Han Ke...

Wu Xian planned to be more vigilant toward him.
