e the plague, okay!" I can take being yelled at, but saying I played with that disgusting homeroom teacher is just too much.“He made me go to the office and work, the whole class heard it! Then he co...What's the point What else would it be but a mass grave
I stared at her with a strange mixture of curiosity and apprehension. Her swollen cheeks trembled with every twitch of her lips, sending shivers down my spine.
"That's no ordinary burial ground... heheh... even if we don't go out and harm people, everyone in this village will die off one by one, hehe..."
As she spoke, her form began to dissipate. The little demon immediately reached out with his chains to restrain her, but she was very cunning. She didn't expose herself completely, only showing her face. If she wanted to escape, she could quickly shrink back in.
The little imp messed up twice, and angrily said to himself: "How come even the ghosts are getting smarter! With so many smart female ghosts around, we're all going to lose our jobs!"
"Of course, you have to keep up with the times... Don't worry, we'll solve it together later." I comforted him.
Jiang Qiyun looked down at the beheaded woman and said calmly, "Whether it's a woman or a man, humans are born with desires. Saints pursue the union of 'li' and 'yu', achieving unity of body and mind with the great way, but many common people misunderstand it as a spiritual shackles."
There was a hint of pity in his words for the ghost. It made sense, after all. In those days, women rarely left their homes. They relied on their fathers and brothers before marriage, and on their husbands afterward. These men could decide whether an ordinary woman's life would be fortunate or unfortunate.
The swollen-headed ghost said that this wasn't just a simple burial ground, and she claimed the people in this village would die off. To be honest, I don't feel much pity for them.
In a place with such uncivilized customs, there's no need to feel too sympathetic towards them. I should just do what I'm supposed to do.
The Shen family took on this commission, so I'll take care of the source of these negative energies, rectify the yin and yang, and restore balance to the energy field. Once the atmosphere is peaceful, the people here will naturally experience fewer misfortunes.
As for money, it doesn't matter whether we take it or not. It's enough to bring the chief steward and Shen Qingrui back, so that the reputation of the Shen family remains intact.
A gust of cold wind blew outside, making the windows at the end of the corridor rattle. As night deepened, the air grew heavier with a sense of gloom.
The little ghost clerk swallowed nervously and whispered, "The ghosts here seem to be very cunning. They must have stayed in some special 'location' for too long and become so sly!"
The window shook violently again. What would it feel like to be a ghost in an entire building
This reminds me of the experience at Haiyan Tower, better get out quickly, staying here too long is not good for you.
But setting up a prison here to contain evil spirits might not be very effective because of the limitations imposed by the terrain.
Jiang Qiyun invoked the boundless law, drawing in water from the underworld and disrupting the balance of yin and yang. This forced all lone souls and wandering ghosts within a vast radius into the underworld.
I have no such magical power...
"Am I supposed to chase them one floor at a time These vengeful spirits are ancient and powerful. Even the ghost hunters with their chains can't keep up with them. How could I, with my round body, possibly compete in speed"
Jiang Qiyun seemed to see my dilemma and reminded me, "If one door doesn't work, then have a few more. The open space below is perfect for setting up an array."
This factory area has only one main entrance, which serves as the "air intake." It's not that the air circulation here is poor, after all, every building has windows.
But this layout is viewed from the perspective of Feng Shui. If you pay close attention, you'll find that large-scale factories rarely have only one entrance. Besides convenience, having multiple entrances also helps with the overall energy flow.
Here, there are buildings on all four sides, including both sides of the gate. The center open space is painted with parking spaces. Summoning ghosts should be most effective here.
After I had determined the direction, I hesitated for a moment before raising my hand and softly asking Jiang Qiyun, "Should I first silently recite Master's talismanic incantation, or...or silently recite yours"
Jiang Qiyun glared at me: “Is this something that requires alerting the great god Tai Yi”
"...This isn't a report to the master, is it..." It's so awkward, like I just asked a stupid question.
Jiang Qiyun looked at me amusedly and said, "If you're going to report this, you should first report it to your husband, then go bother your master."
Very good, very good. Lord Emperor, of great compassion and immense vows, of great sanctity and great mercy.
Actually, Jiang Qiyun's divine title is very long: Taiyin North Emperor Xuanqing Great Emperor Taiyin True Monarch General Manager of Grand Transformation Celestial Venerable Northern Gui Earth Fengdu Luoshan Five Spirits Profound Heaven North Emperor God...
Most titles passed down through the world are names of divine positions, such as the Emperor of Fengdu. However, this is not how they would be addressed within the celestial pantheon. Therefore, his nameplate bears a more gentle inscription: Beitaidi Jun.
As soon as the incantation to subdue evil spirits is uttered, thoughts will follow, and words will resonate. The gate of hell will transform into four sections, corresponding to the four cardinal directions.
But... it's a little small.
It cannot compare with Jiang Qiyun's towering and majestic presence.
The door was adorned with the statues of Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the two Ghost Emperors. They were vividly sculpted, looking so lifelike that they seemed to be smiling at me and comforting me. "Even little Empress has learned quite a bit from Emperor Jun," they said. “If one side isn't enough, let’s make it four!”
"Hold on a moment, both of you. Let me perform a ritual to release their spirits first. These restless souls have been around for centuries; they probably haven't had anyone offer them prayers and send them off." I whispered.
Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Overcoming these vengeful spirits accumulates merit, but also consumes one's cultivation. A few are manageable, but dozens or even hundreds become a monumental task.
I recited the text silently for dozens of times, repeatedly picturing dim bluish phantoms being dragged into hell by chains... How many were there in total
How many bones lie buried in that pit, and how many souls have been suppressed within it
"It's often said that women and the lowly are the hardest to raise, and there is some truth to it…… Women are too emotional, their resentment is just as deep, if not deeper, than men's." Jiang Qiyun sighed, placing his hand on my shoulder.
He leaned in, softly reciting scriptures with me, word by word. Gradually, we fell into sync. With his tone guiding mine, my pace slowed, but the little lotus flower in my hand glowed even brighter.
The Ghost Gate stood menacingly, chains tearing through the air, a small demon attendant bowed and paid his respects nearby. The restless spirits hiding within the building, even in the pipes, were dragged out.
But on the rooftop, a mass of pale blue mist was desperately trying to escape, which caught our attention.
" ... is that swollen ghost" I whispered.
Jiang Qiyun nodded slightly and said to the two Ghost Emperors: "Let her go. Let's see what tricks she can play. This female ghost is not simple. There are so many female ghosts here, but she is the only one who has remained as fresh after all these years. Let's see what else she has up her sleeve."
"Yes." replied the two Ghost Emperors.
The little devil attendant immediately eagerly volunteered: “Your Majesty, Your Highnesses, I will go chase them right now!”
After saying that, he pulled the foolish little ghost and ran after the female ghost's direction of escape.
"...Are there no ghosts here" I wasn't too sure, because there were so many pulled out, completely beyond my imagination, at least a hundred.
The Ghost Emperor Shen Tu replied, "No, besides the one who escaped, we've taken them all... This subordinate takes his leave... Little Lady"
"Huh"
"Remember to bring Little Emperor and Little Fairy to play!"
"... "mortal. Even if they are forcibly driven away from their host, they can find their host again by smell, unless it's as far apart as the ocean.”"I thought about Xie Changning, his blood splattered on y...
