What is it like to be teased by a ghost?

People die like lamps go out,

like soup splashing snow,

If you want to turn around,

Fishing for the moon in the sea.

——Wang Chong

The old school building was already cold, and I don't know if something happened. At night, there was no sound at all, and it seemed extraordinarily quiet and gloomy. As soon as Luo Jiang stepped into the old school building, she felt the wind blowing from all directions.

Luo Jiang clenched the backpack strap in her hand, which contained more than a dozen consecrated pendants. There are two ways to consecrate dead objects. One is to let a person with aura wear jade objects for two to three years. It is a kind of magical thing that can carry pure energy. After two or three years, the jade will be filled with spiritual energy, which can ward off disasters to a certain extent.Another method is to ask authentic Buddhist disciples to chant mantras on items. The pendant in Luo Jiang’s bag was blessed by an abbot full of Buddha’s light one by one. Although the Pixiu given to Xue Yi did not last long, These pendants can at least give Luo Jiang a sense of security compared to some boy who pissed blood.

Luo Jiang walked step by step into the classroom where the pen fairy was invited. The cinnabar mole on her neck could save her life, but it couldn't be used by her. The pendants will not respond, so... Luo Jiang prayed in her heart, hoping that she could use these pendants to smash the ghost to death.

"Come out."

After a while, a puff of green smoke rose out of nowhere from the ground in front of Luo Jiang, and the eunuch he had seen before appeared, and standing behind the eunuch were the dozen or so ghosts, big and small.

Inside, a female ghost wearing a navy blue jacket took the initiative to move the stool beside the eunuch behind the eunuch, and the eunuch sat down with satisfaction, "You are here."

It's still the rough and sharp male duck voice, but the tone is full of determination.

Luo Jiang smiled coldly, "You took my friend's soul, didn't you just force me to come to see you?"

The eunuch turned his fingertips, and a cigarette pouch emerged from his hand. The little ghost Luo Jiang had seen floated over with a smile, and lit a cluster of will-o’-the-wisps to light the eunuch’s cigarette. I don't know what kind of magic the old eunuch used to raise the little ghost who was originally a baby spirit until he was two years old.The eunuch seemed to like this little ghost very much, and stroked the little ghost's head with a smile. The little ghost nestled happily in the eunuch's arms, and then looked at Luo Jiang with two eyes open.

Seeing that the eunuch was dead, Luo Jiang still made a fuss, with a trace of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth, "Are ghosts divided into different classes? You've been living a good life."

The eunuch took a long puff of cigarette, looked at Luo Jiang slowly and said, "Although I didn't enjoy many blessings in life, I'm used to being served by others, so I'm not used to it when I'm dead."

"So you have to kill so many people to serve you? People have their own laws, and ghosts have their own ways. If you do this, aren't you afraid of being caught by ghosts and sent to hell for punishment?"

The eunuch seemed to hear something funny, and grinned his empty mouth, "Do you know how long our family has been dead? 170 years, these 170 years, all thanks to the help of the friends behind our family."

Luo Jiang's face turned pale, and she suddenly remembered the layout of the old school building, "You made the formation? You used these innocent people to help you maintain the formation?"

That's right, formations are consumables, especially this kind of hundred-year-old formations. Although the formations are made with souls, they will last for a long time, but they will always weaken. This is the reason why the eunuch keeps killing people, and these ghosts will also die in the long river of time. Slowly losing consciousness, completely controlled by the eunuch.

"Don't worry." The eunuch took another puff of cigarette, "Your friend is just a living soul, our family will not use it for battle."

After hearing this, Luo Jiang put her heart back into her chest, "Then what is your purpose?"

Luo Jiang is not a saint, and she has no ability to save those innocent ghosts. She has always been very self-aware, and only does things within her own ability, so she is satisfied with getting Xue Yi back.

The eunuch turned the pipe in his hand, and the pipe disappeared into nothingness, replaced by a bronze tripod.The tripod was the size of a palm, extremely delicate, with intricate patterns carved on it, and the eunuch raised the tripod and it fell in front of Luo Jiang.

"Our family doesn't have any malicious intentions, just want your help."

The eunuch said: "Our family once served a famous person, a concubine in the palace. She framed people and died. My family has always been thinking about this. This cauldron is called 'resentment'. Our family cannot leave this formation. You take this cauldron to the place where she is buried and read her name. Bring her here and wait for her to dissolve. Putting resentment into being a human being can be regarded as an end to our family's worries."

At the end, the eunuch's eyes overflowed and said softly, "Her name is Wan Yan Xi."

Now, Luo Jiang can see that the eunuch worked desperately to avenge the concubine before he was alive, and he was still thinking about his reincarnation after death, so he must have fond memories of the concubine. As an eunuch, he no longer has the capital to be a man, but he can't even open his mouth with such a little thought, so he has to be carried into the coffin.Thinking of the eunuch's expression when he lovingly stroked the kid's head just now, he must have hoped to grow old with his lover and be full of children and grandchildren.At this point, Luo Jiang didn't know whether she had more sympathy or hatred for the eunuch.

Luo Jiang leaned over to pick up the tripod, suddenly felt a chill, she shivered and felt uncomfortable.

"I'll help you bring Wanyan Xi's soul here, and you have to promise that you will let my friend go."

The eunuch nodded, "That's natural, you hold her soul, we hand over her soul, and you don't have to worry about our family's refusal."

The eunuch was right. Since Luo Jiang held the concubine's soul, she could naturally threaten the eunuch. If the eunuch could keep this matter in mind until now, he would naturally not ignore the concubine for the sake of two living souls.

"Okay, deal, but I still have one condition, I want that brat."

Luo Jiang pointed to the kid and said.

The eunuch was surprised, but nodded anyway.
