Huangliang Inn

When Ji Hesheng woke up, his limbs felt weak and his head was swollen and painful.He vaguely remembered that he had just captured a pair of harpies for repairing the bronze sword.

Sitting up with his arms propped up, Ji Hesheng leaned against the head of the bed exhaustedly, scanning everything in the room, from the compass on the bedside table, to the ancient paintings hanging on the wall, to the porcelain vases and pots on the treasure shelf. Looking at the past, I feel both familiar and strange.

This feeling is really too strange.

Ji Hesheng pinched the center of his brows hard, as if a piece was missing deep in his memory, and a lot seemed to be added out of thin air.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and Ji Ying's voice came from behind the door: "Grandfather, Su Ming came back from the mountains and brought back three pots."

"I see." Ji Hesheng was about to get up, when his feet just landed on the ground, he suddenly had a splitting headache, couldn't stand upright, staggered and fell under the bed.

Hearing the noise in the house, Ji Ying had a bad feeling, and hurriedly opened the door, seeing Ji Hesheng's appearance, she couldn't help being surprised, walked up quickly, helped him up from the ground, and said worriedly: "Grandfather, what are you doing?" gone?"

"No problem, no problem..." Sitting on the head of the bed, the dizziness was no longer so strong. Ji Hesheng waved his hand, just about to comfort Ji Ying, when suddenly another burst of severe pain hit, and he couldn't control it, so he put his hands on his head He fell on the bed, screaming in pain.

The pain was so severe that his head seemed to be split open.

Ji Hesheng's face was almost pale, big drops of sweat rolled down his face, and veins bulged out of his forehead. If you look carefully, you will find that the black air flowing inside is as thin as a hair, which is exactly the dead air integrated into the body.

"Grandfather, come, Su Ming!"

Realizing that Ji Hesheng's condition was not right, and it was definitely not caused by simple illness, Ji Ying quickly opened the bedside drawer, grabbed out the porcelain bottle, poured out a pitch-black pill, and was about to put it into his mouth.

The pills are of no use at all, but make the symptoms more severe.

Ji Hesheng retched repeatedly, and what he vomited was all blood.Lying on the side of the bed, her eyes were closed tightly, her limbs were stiff, and when she opened it again, her pupils spread to the entire eyeball, showing an abnormal blue-green color.

"grandfather?"

Ji Ying turned pale with shock, before he could ask any more questions, Ji Hesheng suddenly grabbed her neck.The nails that had grown several inches were hard and sharp, easily scratching his flesh, stained with bright red blood.

"Zu..." Ji Ying wanted to struggle, and grabbed Ji Hesheng's wrist, but found that the other party's strength was astonishingly great, and she couldn't break free at all.

Just when his consciousness was dim and his hands and feet were weak, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a burst of hearty laughter: "One Jiazi, a whole Jiazi, I finally made it! Ji Daocheng, father's debt, you owe me It’s finally time to pay back!”

Two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in front of the door. The taller one was Su Ming, as Ji Ying called it, with his head lowered at the moment, unable to see his expression clearly.The dwarf was Su Xiong who forced Ji Daocheng to death in the valley.

Su Xiong is now a centenarian, with a stooped figure, his face is covered with wrinkles, and his hands are wrinkled like tree bark.Only a pair of gloomy pupils were full of light. At the moment, he was full of pride, smiling hoarsely, and limped to the bedside, watching the good show that he had been waiting for for decades.

"You, it's you...you!" Ji Ying's breathing became difficult, and her eyes were bloodshot.

"It's me." Su Xiong looked at him with all his spare time, laughing nonstop, "Ji Daocheng stopped my good deeds and ruined my hard work for 20 years. In the valley, I made a heavy oath that his descendants must pay it back! Although you are not his bloodline, you are still surnamed Ji, practicing two kinds of spells and taking souls to refine them into puppets will not only increase my mana, but also prolong my lifespan, allowing me to live another 20 years!"

The more Suxiong talked, the more complacent he was, he didn't notice at all that Ji's family, which was already full of resentment, suddenly had a cold wind.

A female ghost with a pale complexion and black lines all over her face and arms was floating in mid-air, her jet-black hair was scattered behind the female ghost, and strings of water droplets dripped from the tail of her hair, stagnating in the middle, forming a series of water lines, constantly It deforms and elongates, and finally weaves into a water net, covering the entire Ji Zhai.

In Huangliang Inn, Yan Jue was sitting on the second floor, the incense burner on the wooden table had been extinguished, only the copper bell swayed slightly.

The screen is blank, and the pictures hanging on the wall are flashing, faintly visible.

Four wooden slips were placed side by side in his hand, with more and more red lines on them, the female ghost voluntarily sacrificed two souls and two souls, and reached a contract with him for the second time.

"Ji Daocheng is dead and soul is gone, Suxiong is still doing harm to the world. I ask the shopkeeper to help me one more time, let Jihesheng Jiying go home, and lead him to show up."

The enemy of the female ghost has died, and the soul of the person who killed her was taken away, and became the material for Su Xiong to refine his puppet.Originally, her obsession was gone, and she should go to the underworld with peace of mind.But she didn't want to go, and she couldn't.

"What is owed must be paid back."

"does it worth?"

"worth."

The female ghost has made up her mind, she is determined, she is willing to give her soul, and also to repay Ji Daocheng for protecting her.Yan Jue didn't refuse, but told her clearly that even if she could be reincarnated, the next life would be smooth.

"If you lose the four of the three souls and seven souls, you may lose your mind."

With the consequences clearly in front of her eyes, the female ghost still did not waver.

Yan Jue didn't persuade her any more, and reached a contract with her, asking Geng Chen to help take care of the inn, and personally sent Ji Hesheng, grandparents, and Su Ming back to Qingshi, and changed the memories of the three of them.

The female ghost stayed at Ji's house, waiting patiently for Suxiong to appear.

The hard work paid off, and after half a month, the target she was waiting for finally appeared.

Su Xiong triumphantly stepped into Ji's residence, looking greedily at everything around him, thinking that all of this would belong to him, Ji Hesheng and Ji Ying would also become puppets in his hands, his mood was even better.

On the surface, Su Ming is honest and honest. He stayed in Ji's house for several years and has been delivering news for Su Xiong.

Su Xiong was proud of the success of the plan, without any defense behind him, he was directly stabbed through the waist and abdomen by Su Ming, and there was severe pain from the wound, his smile stopped abruptly, he turned his head in disbelief, his eyes opened wide, and he said angrily: " you you?!"

Su Ming didn't talk to him too much, he drew out the murder weapon, and then he stabbed twice again, the strikes were extremely vicious, all of them were wounded at vital points.

Even if Su Xiong has great abilities, with such a serious injury, he can't use it at this moment.He could only use his last strength to raise his arms and block the cutting blade indiscriminately.

"Do you think I don't know? In order to win the position of patriarch, you killed your father and brother, poisoned your younger brother, and disregarded human relations to occupy your niece and daughter-in-law! My mother endured the humiliation and made me pretend to be stupid, just to save my life. I have a chance to get my revenge!"

Su Ming is tall and powerful.At this moment, his face was full of rage, his facial features were ferocious and distorted, completely different from the simple and honest image of the past, he looked like a different person.

"I waited and waited, since I was six years old, I have been waiting for this opportunity!"

"Do you think that you have calculated everything, that you are in control of everything? Do you think that human lives are worthless in war years, and everything will be easily covered up?"

"You are dreaming!"

Su Ming roared angrily, the knife in his hand fell again and again, slashing at Su Xiong's body.

Suxiong was old and weak, and unable to release the evil spirit, the wounds on his body continued to increase, and finally he was dying and fell into a pool of blood.

After he died, Su Ming still didn't give up, his fierce eyes swept towards Ji Hesheng and Ji Ying.Because of Suxiong's death, Ji Hesheng regained consciousness for a short time. Seeing the scene before him, he immediately pushed Ji Ying away and said, "Go!"

While speaking, Ji Hesheng rushed towards Su Ming, hugged him with the remaining strength, and tried his best to let Ji Ying run away.

"Want to go? It's not that easy!"

Su Ming is extremely vicious, and killing Su Xiong is just the beginning. He has been in Ji's family for a long time, and he has long coveted the wealth of Ji's family.Just keep doing nothing, kill the two old ones, and then take away Jiying's soul, make him stupid, pretend the scene, deceive the eyes of the world, and enjoy everything by himself.

"Old man, go to hell!"

Just as Su Ming was about to drop his knife, a gust of wind rose from the flat ground, and ghostly cries sounded in his ears.There was a terrifying coolness on the back of the neck, as if someone was blowing the wind behind the ears, but the wind was cold, and the cold penetrated into the bone marrow, almost freezing people to death.

"Who?!"

Su Ming threw away Ji Hesheng, turned his head suddenly, swung the short knife in his hand, and plunged into the black mist.

The mist suddenly spread, enveloping him.

In the middle of the fog, Su Ming's hands and feet were entangled, unable to move at all, just about to yell at him, a blue and white gloomy grimace suddenly appeared in front of him.

Her pretty face was covered with black lines, her bluish-black lips parted into a smile, and her scarlet eyes were cold and frightening.

In the blink of an eye, the female ghost suddenly disappeared.After a while, cold hands slowly climbed up Su Ming's neck, and the black hair wrapped around him like spider silk, wrapping him layer by layer, getting tighter and tighter.

Su Ming yelled in horror, and the sound echoed throughout the house for a long time.

Ji Hesheng fainted amidst the screams and died on the spot.Ji Ying wanted to go forward, but suddenly her eyes went dark, and she fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Because Ji's house is located in a remote place, it took three full days before anyone discovered the tragedy in the house.Ji Hesheng, Su Xiong, and Su Ming are all dead. Although Ji Ying is alive, she becomes silent, as if she has no reaction to the outside world.

After careful investigation, all the evidence points to Su Ming.The reason for the murder was also found out, and with the testimony of his mother and family members, Su Xiong's evil deeds were revealed to the world.Although Ji Hesheng didn't get directly killed, he has been using financial resources as a cover for Suxiong, arresting and arbitrarily arresting rare birds, and using Suxiong's hands to get rid of those who know him, which is also a heinous crime.

After the murder, Ji Ying stayed at home alone. Because of the property left by Ji Hesheng, she didn't need to worry about making a living.The police informed his distant relatives that they were afraid that someone had been killed in the house, and they were not familiar with them at first, and now they are even more unwilling to visit frequently, and they only come to visit once in a while, and they don't want to take another half step.

Day after day, Ji Ying isolated herself from the world and lived like a hermit.In the dead of night, when people walk into the courtyard and see the female ghost floating down the corridor, a smile will appear on their numb faces.

"You came."

In the Huangliang Inn, two wooden slips flew into the wall, the wooden carved drawers were closed, and the surface patterns changed. A dignified woman was sitting by the water, with an unexpectedly gentle expression.

Yan Jue was leaning against the counter, holding a jug in his hand and pouring himself a drink.

When Geng Chen walked in, he happened to drink the third cup.The familiar Yinglong aura appeared, Yan Jue turned over the second wine glass, filled it to [-]% full, sent it to Geng Chen from the air, looked back and said with a smile: "Drink with me tonight, how about it?"
