"what!!!!!"

The miserable cries of the old man and Li Xuanxuan sounded from the walking corpse's mouth at the same time. The flames engulfed them, but also engulfed Qian Liang at the same time.

"Damn it! I didn't prepare for such a long time to let you destroy it!"

Before he knew it, Qian Liang's voice had distorted, but he was still alive. He rushed out frantically and rushed towards Hu Tao.

"Why can't this person touch my fire?"

Hu Tao stabbed Qian Liang's stomach again, and suddenly discovered to his surprise that Qian Liang's appearance had changed drastically at this time.

He was obviously wrapped in his own flames, but his whole body was wet and swollen everywhere, his fingers were disfigured, and not a single drop of blood flowed out from the place where he was stabbed.

It looked like a corpse drowned in the river.

"I see, so you are the white-clothed water ghost who escaped from Wuwangpo a few days ago!" Hu Tao's eyes suddenly sharpened.

"Ghost? How could I be a ghost!"

"Look at what you look like now!" Hu Tao shouted.

Qian Liang was taken aback for a moment, looking down at his hands.

"This, this, this..."

"How is that possible."

In a trance, many memories that I had forgotten emerged.

"how can that be?"

Yes, it turns out that he is also a ghost.

"Then why the hell did I do everything!"

"what?!!!"

He remembered that he was a water ghost, not Qian Liang.

Qian Liang was the substitute he dragged into the water.

He also remembered that he, Qian Liang, and Li Xuanxuan were good friends, and they both admired Li Xuanxuan.

It's just that in the end Li Xuanxuan chose Qian Liang instead of him.

He harbored resentment, so he invited Li Xuanxuan to the grove, and wanted to take possession of her by force, but he failed, and was cut off by the Wang family who had been watching for a long time. He was pushed into the river and drowned.

He was not willing to end like this, he wandered on the border of life and death for an unknown number of years, and finally returned to that river.

The water ghost asked his good friend Qian Liang to come to the river in his dream.

Then, the water ghost turned into Qian Liang.

Poor Qian Liang always thought that Li Xuanxuan just disappeared and became someone's child bride-in-law, someone's maid. He learned a lot of knowledge.

"How ridiculous... how ridiculous!"

"I hate your god!"

The weather suddenly turned cold, and the rain fell and fell on the ground. After a while, it turned into a torrential rain, and ghosts screamed in the rain.

boom!

The walnut spear slashed down, stalemate with the Yin Qi that filled the sky.

hiss--

The rain was full of corpse poison and stench, and the drops burned a hole in Walnut's clothes.

Suddenly, a white light appeared in the sky, and the water ghost who had turned into Qian Liang looked up subconsciously.

What was reflected in the gradually dilated pupils was a blue long spear, descending straight from the sky.

boom!

When it landed, it was full of broken guns and halberds.

Exorcism dance for cleansing monsters, removing evil spirits and demons!

Chapter 27 Whoever hurts others ends up hurting himself

"Thank you for helping me with these things."

Standing by the port of Liyue Port, Wang Xiangdi said to Shen Ming and Hu Tao.

Wang Xiangdi is the wife of the Wang family, and her original name was Xu Xiangdi. Since she married into the Wang family, she naturally became Wang Xiangdi.

"Don't be so polite, Miss Wang, we just helped move some things." Shen Ming said with a smile.

It has been a week since the Wang family incident.

With Shen Ming's advance reminder and Hu Tao's help, the fire was extinguished ahead of time, and Wang Xiangdi survived, along with some servants who had been following Wang Xiangdi from the beginning.

But even so, more than half of the servants died tragically under that upheaval, and all the members of the Wang family died except for Wang Xiangdi.

In a sense, Qian Liang and Li Xuanxuan's goal had also been achieved. They did remove the Wang family that killed Li Xuanxuan.

Oh, it's not Qian Liang, but the water ghost who turned into Qian Liang.

"Sister Wang, do you... still remember Qian Liang?" Shen Ming asked tentatively.

"Qian... Liang?" Wang Xiangdi was puzzled, then frowned, "Who is that?"

"It's okay." Shen Ming waved his hand, "Sister Wang, what are you going to do from now on?"

"What to do..." Wang Xiangdi sighed, "What else can I do? There was a fire, and the house was gone."

"Be a businessman in the future, while you still have some savings, pull some things from Zhidong to Liyue to sell."

woo-

"The boat is about to leave, so that's it." Wang Xiangdi stroked the hair next to her ear, "I'm leaving."

"Goodbye, Miss Wang." Shen Ming.

"When Liyue comes again, remember to call us!" Hu Tao danced and waved her hands.

Wang Xiangdi smiled, waved her hands, and then disappeared among the boarding crowd.

Shen Ming and Hu Tao watched Wang Xiangdi leave without saying a word for a long time.

"Is that good?" Shen Ming asked.

"That's good." Hu Tao replied, watching the fleet gradually set off, "The boundary between life and death is not something ordinary people can bear."

"The only way is to tamper with her memory and make her think it was a fire that killed their family? Is there no other way?"

"This is not tampering, it's called revision!" Hu Tao retorted, "What else? Let her know that her husband and her husband's parents were all killed by ghosts?"

"She is just an ordinary person. If she knows all this, she will live in the shadows for the rest of her life, not daring to walk at night, not staying in a room alone, not daring to look in the mirror, for fear that one day, those two ghosts will come Take her life."

"Even if we guarantee that the ghost is gone, what's the use? The seeds of doubt have been planted, and any danger in the future will be regarded as the ghost's death. What's the difference between being alive and dead?"

Shen Ming once again realized the powerlessness of ordinary people in the world of the original gods.

"Then what happened to Qian Liang? She still remembers everyone from before, but why doesn't she remember that Qian Liang? Did you do this too?"

"This is not me." Hu Tao whispered, "I suspect that the so-called Qian Liang simply used a trick to charm the entire Wang family."

"It was half a month ago when I found him in Wuwangpo. How could he be someone who had lived in the Wang family for more than ten years? It was probably some kind of blindfold, which made the Wang family mistakenly think that he had lived in the Wang family for a long time. Years, and became a housekeeper."

"And blindness is time-sensitive, and this level of blindness can only make people subconsciously feel that there is such a person, so Qian Liang, ah no, this ghost's presence in the Wang family is relatively low."

"Once Qian Liang dies, this cover-up will lose its effect. Now if I show Qian Liang's portrait to Sister Wang, she may not be able to recognize it. At most, she has a little impression, but she definitely doesn't know who it is."

When Hu Tao saved the water ghost, he also knew the past of the water ghost.

From being malicious to being pushed into the water by the Wang family, turning into a water ghost, and then mistakenly thinking that he was Qian Liang planning revenge, Hu Tao watched all of these like a revolving lantern.

This is just the memory of that water ghost. The characteristics of water ghosts are like this. They are in the water, peeping at the shore, looking for a substitute all the time. Once they find a substitute, they will pull the soul of the substitute into the river. , and I turned into the person on the shore, and continued to live as him.

In this process, the water ghost will think that he has broken away from the identity of the water ghost, and has really become that person. This double method of deceiving others first deceives himself has indeed allowed many water ghosts to escape reincarnation.

It's a pity that a ghost is a ghost after all, and it is impossible to become a human again without reincarnation.

Once you realize that you are not a human but a water ghost, then you will return to the appearance of a water ghost, like a fish that has landed on the shore, lack of water and exposure to the sun, and dissipate in the sky and the earth. No matter how high your skills are, it will only delay this time.

From Hu Tao's point of view, it was the water ghost who escaped from Wuwangpo, returned to the river where he died, entrusted Qian Liang with a dream, then dragged him into the water and drowned, and used his body as a substitute to get ashore.

When he went ashore, he mistakenly thought that he was Qian Liang, so he did what Qian Liang wanted to do. The so-called reporting to officials and the so-called investigation were all his imagination. He only did two things after inheriting Qian Liang's memory. Became the housekeeper of the Wang family, and liberated Li Xuanxuan who had already turned into a ghost but was trapped in the coffin.

Then, Hu Tao and Shen Ming came, and his dream was shattered.

The Butterfly Fire on the other side burned through the Wang family's old house, and also burned through the self-imagining of the water ghost. In the end, in hysterical despair, Shen Ming dropped the most powerful card.

"But having said that, you can do it, and you can even envoy an immortal?" Hu Tao poked Shen Ming's shoulder with his elbow.

"That's not an envoy, that's called a fair contract." Shen Ming smiled leisurely, but then sighed, "The price is that if someone from Liyue asks me to do something, I can't refuse within three things. "

"I hope the request of the visitor will not be too harsh."

Shen Ming prayed like this.

"Okay, don't pray, this time we have a bumper harvest, go back and celebrate." Hu Tao patted Shen Ming.

It was indeed a bumper harvest, because Wang Xiangdi handed over the death work of the old man and her husband to the Hall of Rebirth.

After three days of vigil, I watched their burial with my own eyes.

She sold the burned-out old house, rented a boat, and took the servants who were still willing to follow her, preparing to run a business.

That old house was bought by a businessman with decent strength.

During the negotiation, neither Hu Tao nor Shen Ming mentioned about Qian Liang and Li Xuanxuan.

Life and death are separated, so let the stories of these two be buried underground forever.

Chapter 28 The Views of Life and Death of the Pastoral Hall Masters

A good day starts with breakfast.

In the early morning, Shen Ming was walking on the street eating Huyan, smelling the aroma, the glutton in his stomach was completely lured out.

"This fragrance is strong enough!"

Sweet, sour, spicy and salty, minced scallion and garlic, cumin pepper, scallion and ginger, roast chicken, roast duck, pork intestine and tripe, stewed vegetables in oil pan, grilled and fried.

What you want light, is to eat happily!Eat comfortably!

"I mean it! Can you think about it!"

"Sorry, our Adventurer's Association will not consider this kind of thing."

"Look, the adventurers are usually so busy, and they always go to very dangerous places. Many people don't have time to prepare for the funeral, right? Why don't you buy the discounted package of our Xiangshengtang, you can send it when you die, and support free shipping. Wherever you are, we can bring back the remains of the adventurers!"

"In this case, why not spend the money on life insurance?!" Sister Jiang patted the table.

"Sooner or later... Buying life-saving equipment can't prevent death, but we can provide complete and considerate services after death. Isn't it more cost-effective than life-saving equipment?"

"Sorry, please go back, we won't do such things as buying coffins for adventurers." Sister Jiang said with a headache.

"Single-person customization, wholesale is okay! Please, think about it!"

"If you don't leave, my name is Qianyanjun!" Sister Jiang raised her eyebrows coldly.

"No, no, okay, I'll go...I'll come back tomorrow."

"Don't come!" Sister Jiang patted the table again angrily.

......

After listening to this conversation, Shen Ming knew who it was.

Walnut is promoting her coffin again in the Adventurer's Association, saying that times are changing, and the means of publicity must follow up in time.

But it can be seen that this is doing useless work again.

The Hall of Rebirth is a very weird place, and its past hall masters are even more weird.

The hall masters of the Hall of Rebirth take life and death very lightly, and their unique view of life and death also makes them often out of tune with the people around them.

The same is true for Hu Tao. When her grandfather died, she went to Wuwangpo and waited for a long time, hoping to see her grandfather again.

It's a pity that she couldn't wait any longer. Her grandfather was already satisfied and passed away without a trace of nostalgia, so he wouldn't linger here at all.
