Huangliang Inn

Chapter 52 Sandalwood Beads

"Come to visit rashly, please don't blame the shop owner." When the old man saw Yan Jue, he contacted the information he had received before and knew that he was the owner of the inn.

"Sir, you don't have to be like this." Yan Jue smiled back, "Anyone who comes is a guest, please come in."

The young man followed the old man to greet Yan Jue, and then helped the old man across the gate of the inn.

Yan Jue observed carefully and found that there seemed to be something wrong with the old man.With his ghost age, unless he is seriously injured, his soul and body will not be so unstable.According to his current situation, if he can't find a way to stabilize his soul, his soul will collapse within half a month.

Could this be the reason why the two came to the door?

After the two sat down at the table, Yan Jue turned around and walked to the counter, settled the red dragon, and then brought a pot of ghost tea and a box of snacks made of ghost pills.

The old man and the young man thanked Yan Jue, and took out two animal pills as tea supplies.

Nine tails glanced at it, and concluded that it was a wolf demon, who had practiced for about 200 years, and there was nothing worth noting, so he turned his eyes away and didn't care anymore.As for other aspects, she has seen countless weird things from the prehistoric to the present, and there is nothing wrong with the mirage dragon in front of her, and she doesn't need to intervene at all.

Ugly Six's knowledge is not as good as Jiuwei's, and he found that the old man and the young man have no hostility, and very little resentment, and they have not been contaminated by hunting monsters. grabbing.

"Please." Yan Jue personally poured two cups of ghost tea and brought them to the old man and the young man.

The two thanked Yan Piao again, each drank half of a cup, and spent two or three pieces of dim sum before returning to the topic and explaining the purpose of their visit.

"Today's visit is really asking for something. If the store is willing to help, if the two of us can do it, we will do our best to repay the favor of the store." The old man said seriously.

Yan Jue didn't respond immediately, but glanced at the two of them, tapped his finger on the table once, twice, three times, and when the two could no longer maintain their composure and showed uneasiness in their expressions, he opened his mouth and said, "What's the matter?"

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and lifted his sleeve, revealing a sandalwood bead on his wrist.

The outer layer of sandalwood beads is heavily wrapped with ghost energy, forming a black barrier.And wrapped with white hair, fixed on the old man's wrist.

At the same time as the old man lifted his sleeve, the sandalwood beads suddenly changed, and the ghost energy in the outer layer suddenly surged, and the barrier became extremely unstable. After a while, cracks appeared, and the resentment overflowed from the gap and quickly diffused.

The old man was taken aback, and immediately sacrificed his own ghost energy, intending to suppress the resentment gushing from the sandalwood beads.

Yan Jue suddenly realized that the root cause of the instability of the old man's soul and body was in this wooden bead.

"Father!" Even though he had experienced the same scene, the young man showed shock, and was about to use his own ghostly aura to help the old man, but Yan Jue stopped him, tapped his finger on the sandalwood bead, and the outer barrier suddenly disintegrated, and a A female ghost in a red dress came out of the bead.

The old man and the young man turned pale with shock, and said at the same time: "Shopkeeper, no!"

Yan Jue pretended not to hear it, and after releasing the ghost, a silver bell appeared in the palm of his hand, he shook it lightly twice, the bell tongue struck the bell wall, and the sound was clear and long.

The sound of bells lingered endlessly, and shimmering spiritual power spun around and intertwined to form a semicircular spiritual net, which acted as a hood for the female ghost.

The spiritual net bound the resentment and hostility, and it became tighter and tighter, until the female ghost could not move at all, and could only scream and roar. A pair of scarlet eyes locked onto her face, emitting a terrifying and fierce light.

Seeing the female ghost being bound, the old man first looked relaxed, and then showed worry.He was worried that Yan Jue would be angered, so he refused to lend a helping hand.

Contrary to the expectations of the old man and the young man, Yan Jue was not angry at all, but looked at the two of them with interest, and asked, "Is this the real reason why you two came to the door?"

The two looked at each other, the old man sighed softly, and said: "It's true, to tell you the truth. In order to suppress her resentment, the two of us tried our best to avoid being discovered by ghosts. We have been hiding in Tibet for several years. My mana is about to be exhausted, and my own ghost energy can't last long, so I came to visit after learning about the Huangliang Inn by chance."

"What is the relationship between Mr. and this ghost?"

"My name is Feng Zengshou, and this girl's name is Feng Xia. She is my great-granddaughter. She encountered a villain during her lifetime, and escaped with great difficulty. After she returned home, she found out that her parents had undergone a major change, and she encountered rumors. She committed suicide in a single thought." The voice of the old man. Trembling slightly, looking at the trapped female ghost, she said in deep pain, "As a wandering soul, I cannot interfere with the affairs of the living. I can only watch her suffer, but there is nothing I can do about it."

When the old man was speaking, the female ghost suddenly stopped struggling and turned around with difficulty under the spirit net. She stared at the old man with blood-red eyes and screamed sharply: "You can't help me, why stop me, don't let me take revenge!"

"Xiaoxia..."

"Don't call me! Don't call me!" The female ghost tore at the spirit net vigorously, regardless of the erosion of resentment and hostility, and the sharp pain of burning soul, loudly, "You know, you obviously know, you know how those beasts treat you Me, you know I was cornered, you know how my parents died! Why do you trap me, why don't you let me take revenge, why, why?!"

The female ghost died complaining and hating. After death, she turned into a fierce ghost, and her clothes and dresses were all dyed bright red.There are black lines all over the cheeks and forehead, and the eyes are scarlet like blood, like a pair of pupils of evil beasts.

The old man looked sad, his lips were trembling, and he didn't know how to explain it.The young man supported the old man, frowned at the female ghost, and said, "Father is helping you. If you turn into a ghost, if you hurt people's lives and taint your blood, let alone reincarnation, you can't even be a ghost."

As if hearing a big joke, the female ghost laughed wildly, her voice was so shrill and shrill that it could almost pierce the ears of the listener.

"I don't care, do you hear me clearly? I don't care!" the female ghost yelled wildly, "I don't want reincarnation, I don't want reincarnation, I don't want any afterlife, I don't want any next life, I just want revenge! I just want to let those who hurt me and those who humiliate me , Those who force me to a dead end will die a terrible death! I will tear them apart alive, and let them accompany me to die!"

The female ghost fell into madness, constantly tearing at the spirit net, and black energy surged all over her body.The pitch-black sharp nails snapped off one after another and then grew back quickly, scraping against the spirit rope, the sound was piercing, like a knife cutting bluestone.

Seeing the female ghost like this, the old man became more and more sad. He knew that he and the young man could do nothing, so he could only look at Yan Jue pleadingly, and said, "Shopkeeper, if you can let her get rid of her obsession and go to the underworld to reincarnate , I can take everything I have, and I have nothing to say."

"Father!" the young man said anxiously, "I didn't make an appointment before, I'll come..."

The old man shook his head, pushed away the young man's support, stood up and bowed his hands to Yan Jue: "Shopkeeper, please help me."

"Yes." Yan Xunxu supported the old man, and at the same time sacrificed a spiritual power to stabilize the old man's soul, then turned his gaze to the female ghost, and said, "You want revenge, I can help you."

The female ghost refused to believe it and turned a deaf ear to his words.

Yan Jue simply grabbed the spirit net that trapped the female ghost, and put two fingers together on the female ghost's forehead.

The raging black energy suddenly shrank, and the female ghost's distorted facial features gradually became normal. The scarlet eyes were no longer filled with madness, and finally flashed a bit of clarity.

"I can help you." Yan Jue withdrew his hand and said again.

Trapped by the spirit net, the female ghost stared at Yan Jue without blinking.Even though he regained some sobriety, his expression was still full of resentment and unwillingness, his voice was extremely sharp, and his words were even more sarcasm.

"I just want to kill, I just want revenge! Can you help me?"

"Why not?"

Yan Jue bent down, lifted the white tail that came over at some point, and gently scratched his chin with his white fingertips.While speaking, mirage dragon's aura surged all over his body, not only the three ghosts, including Nine Tails and Ugly Six, felt their nerves tense up.

Knowing that it is not aimed at yourself, you will still feel fear.

This is the horror of mirage dragon.

Baiwei curled up into a ball, carefully curled up in Yan Jue's hands.Liuwei jumped onto Jiuwei's lap and tried to hide in his mother's arms.At this moment, she was soberly aware of how stupid she was before and how shallow her knowledge of Mirage was.Don't blame my mother for saying she is stupid, she is really courting death!

When Yan Jue restrained his breath, the heart of the old man and the young man trembled, their faces were full of horror, and their attitudes became more cautious.

The female ghost was completely different, grasping the spirit net with both hands, regardless of being eaten away by resentment, and regardless of the growing instability of her soul, she said in a trembling voice: "Can you really help me?"

"I can."

Staring at Yan Jue for a long time, the female ghost took the initiative to withdraw her resentment and hostility.

The black air was no longer pervasive, and Yan Jue also removed the spirit net, and asked her to sit with the old man and young man and pour a new cup of ghost tea.

"If you want me to help you, you need to make a contract and sacrifice your soul." Yan Jue said.

"Okay." The female ghost didn't hesitate at all, as long as she could get revenge, she was willing to give everything, even taking all three souls and seven souls.

Under the condition, the female ghost drank the whole cup of ghost tea, then put down the teacup, followed what Yan Xun said, and narrated everything that happened to her.

"My name is Feng Xia, I was 21 years old when I died..."

The female ghost fell into memory, the black lines on her cheeks continued to spread, her eyes were scarlet, and she was filled with resentment, but her expression was no longer as crazy as before, and more sadness poured out from behind the resentment.

Even though she has been a ghost for many years, entangled by resentment, and plunged into deeper and deeper madness, she still clearly remembers that summer, when she was about to graduate from university, she received interview notices from three companies after the job fair, and successfully got a job after the interview.

The sisters in the same dormitory knew about her family situation and were happy for her. They specially ordered cakes to celebrate and surprise her.

Feng Xia called home and told her parents excitedly that she has a job and will soon be able to make money, and can help pay for her father's medical expenses, so her mother doesn't have to work so hard.

Feng's father was a construction worker in his early years. He injured his spine on the construction site and was paralyzed in bed.Even if there is insurance, the sum of various expenses is astronomical for this not rich family.

When Feng's father was injured and hospitalized, the person in charge of the project only came to visit once, leaving 4000 yuan, and then disappeared and never showed up again.Even though there was a court ruling, his family members refused to implement it, and even tried to transfer property, blatantly bullied the orphans and widows, and even viciously told Feng Xia face to face that they wanted to consume Feng's father to death.

"Want money? To tell you the truth, no! A family of shameless beggars blackmailed us, right?"

"Forcing you to die? Alright, die, when you die, I will burn a few hundred million for you, so that you can enjoy the good underground!"

Because the other party's family was rich and powerful, they would rather spend money on management than pay for medical expenses, Feng Xia's family had nowhere to ask, so they could only swallow the pain.

What was even more frustrating was that the relatives of the Feng family came to the door every three days, saying that the Feng family had received a large amount of compensation, and Feng's father would not need that much for treatment, so he had to borrow [-] to [-] for emergency.

[-] to [-] is not a small amount, thanks to them being able to say it!

Feng's mother had to be strong, and drove him away regardless of the other party's insults.Turning around and weeping alone, crying and having to work from dawn to dusk, just to make more money and ensure that Feng's father does not stop taking medicine.

The family is too difficult, Feng Xia has the idea of ​​dropping out of school.

After Feng's mother found out, she hadn't touched a single finger of her since she was a child, and she hadn't said a few serious words. This time, she became ruthless and patted Feng Xia's back forcefully, then hugged her in her arms, so hard that she It made Feng Xia almost out of breath.

"Don't have this idea again, don't allow it, do you understand?"

"mom……"

"You have to read, read it hard, even if it's a waste of money, you have to read it!"

Feng's father heard the conversation between the mother and daughter, and beat his immobile legs hard. The man in his 40s, with tears running down his cheeks, dared not cry out for fear of being overheard by his wife and daughter.

When Feng Xia returned to school, Feng's mother watched over Feng's father, brought warm water to wipe his body, and said, "Old Feng, you have to be well, you must be well. Our daughter is sensible, and I hope you can get better." , don't let her down, okay?"

"I'm a useless person." Feng's father covered his eyes with one hand, and said hoarsely, "I'm a drag on your mother and daughter. If I die, our family..."

"Don't say that!" Feng's mother threw the towel into the basin, ignored the splashing water, pulled Feng's father's arm away forcefully, and said with a choked voice, "Old Feng, you are not allowed to say that again. I can do anything that drags you down." If you can make money, it will definitely cure you! Our family of three is complete, this is a family. You can’t say such things again, especially not in front of Xia!”

Feng's mother beat Feng's father's shoulder hard, crying: "Did you hear that, did you hear that!"

Father Feng was crying and held Mother Feng in his arms.The couple cried happily. When they woke up the next day, Father Feng sat in a wheelchair and went to the vegetable market with Mother Feng.

His legs were paralyzed and his hands could still move, so he couldn't continue to lie on the bed as a disabled person.

With Feng's father cheering up and Feng Xia finding a job, the life of the Feng family finally has hope.Unexpectedly, while life seemed to be improving, a disaster came quietly, smashing the short-lived happiness to pieces, and completely destroying the family.

The instigator was Fang Xia, the wife of the project director who refused to pay Feng's father's medical expenses and forced them to die with vicious words.
