Chapter 801: Sealed alive in the shadow wall
Xue Wu began to summon Rui'er's soul, but she failed to summon it several times, she could sense his soul, but she just couldn't summon it back, as if his soul was trapped somewhere.
It seems that she has to make a real trip.
The longer the delay, the lower the possibility of the child's soul coming back, so Xue Wu immediately said, "You wait, I'll come when I go." β
She went to the backyard and used the teleportation charm to disappear in an instant.
When she reappeared, she came to a dilapidated courtyard, and there was a piece of paper pasted on the courtyard wall, which read: This house is only sold for forty taels, and if you want to buy it as soon as possible, it will not be outdated.
Although the courtyard in front of me is dilapidated, it looks like the area is not small, and it is only priced at forty taels? However, judging from the wornness of the paper, it has been posted for many years, but it has still not been taken off, and it seems that it has not been sold.
Forty taels is enough to buy land alone, why hasn't such a house been sold? There's got to be something wrong with it.
The brass lock hanging from the gate was broken, revealing a wide gap in the middle that could be used by a child, and through the crack it was a scene of decay and desolation.
Xue Wu gathered the aura in her eyes, and saw a scene that ordinary people could not see.
There was a pitch-black yin aura in the sky above the house, which gathered into terrifying shapes from time to time, which was terrifying.
Xue Wu jumped in from the courtyard wall, and at first glance saw the shadow wall at the entrance, where the black gas was the thickest.
It seems that the yin energy in the house is emitted from here.
Could it be that there is a terrible ghost hidden in this? It seems that her chance to earn merit has come.
Xue Wu didn't rush closer, but searched all over the house first, but didn't see Rui'er's soul leaving her body, it seemed that it could only be in that shadow wall.
She snapped a willow branch and whipped it towards the shadow wall.
Before it hit, the shadow wall cracked first, and a female ghost in a crimson dress and a blue skirt stood in mid-air, holding a seven or eight-year-old boy in her arms, it was Rui'er.
The female ghost revealed her appearance before her death, with beautiful facial features, long hair reaching her waist, and a beautiful woman, but there were whip marks on the dress on her body, which looked relatively tattered.
Although she has a deep yin qi on her body, she is not entangled in killing, which means that she has not killed anyone.
For this kind of powerful ghosts, Xue Wu generally chooses to surpass them.
"What's your name?" Xue Wu asked, salute first and then soldier.
The female ghost snorted coldly: "Are you here for this little ghost?" β
Xue Wu nodded: "That's right, if you let him go, this drop of yellow spring water is yours, how about it?" β
She stretched out her hand, and there was a drop of bright yellow water suspended in her palm, with an amber bee-like texture, which was what she had left over from refining the Rebirth Pill before.
There is not much yellow spring water left, only a few drops.
In addition to the strange effect mentioned earlier, the yellow spring water also has another miraculous effect, that is, it can make the ghost's body solid, not afraid of the sun.
The female ghost seemed to appear in the sunlight in the open, but in fact, there was a thick yin qi around the top of her head, like a protective shield covering her inside, which could greatly reduce the damage caused by the sun on her body.
But in the end, it is impossible to immunize all of them.
Moreover, condensing these yin qi is also a great drain on herself.
Seeing the drop of yellow spring water at this moment, the female ghost intuitively felt that the drop of water was of great use to herself, and she couldn't help but be attracted by it, and her eyes stared at it without blinking.
Apparently heartbeat.
It's good to be moved, it is best to be able to save people without moving, and Xue Wu doesn't want to fight with female ghosts, so as not to accidentally hurt Rui'er's children.
After all, once the soul leaves the body, it is very fragile, and it may be easy to blow it away when a relatively strong wind blows.
The female ghost thought about it for a while, and then agreed, anyway, she took the child's soul and just planned to tease him, even if the person in front of her didn't come, she would let him go when the time came.
"Okay, but you have to give me that drop first." The female ghost licked her lips.
Xue Wu shook her head: "What if you take the Yellow Spring Water and don't return Rui'er's soul to me?" So, how about I count to three, and we let go and throw things at each other at the same time? β
Female ghost: "Yes." β
"One, two, threeβ" Xue Wu's voice fell, and the drop of yellow spring water suspended in her palm catapulted towards the female ghost, who also pushed Rui'er's soul over.
Xue Wu caught Rui'er and put it into the soul cultivation bag.
The female ghost opened her mouth and swallowed the yellow spring water directly.
After a while, her figure became much more solid, she used to look light and weightless, easily reminiscent of a ghost, but now, she looked like a normal person.
The female ghost stretched and landed on the ground, trying to take a few steps, and if you ignore the fact that she had no shadow, she looked like a human being.
Xue Wu took out delicate clothes made of paper, a brazier, and when she lit the fire, she asked the name of the female ghost again, but this time she added: "Burn some clothes for you to wear." β
The female ghost was silent for a while, "Aster." β
"Aster, that's a nice name." Xue Wu praised it, threw the paper clothes into the brazier, and burned them to Aster.
The paper garments burned to ashes, but on the other side, Aster received several gorgeous dresses.
She was transformed, and her tattered clothes turned into a purple skirt.
After that, Xue Wu burned some food and drink for Aster.
Aster has been a ghost for so many years, and finally tasted the delicious taste of the world again, and she was so moved that she cried.
After that, he spit bitter water at Xue Wu.
ββ¦β¦ I was so unlucky that I broke the secret of Madame's private meeting with my mother's cousin, but I was discovered by Madame, who was afraid that I would reveal her secret, so she sealed me alive in the shadow wall......"
Recalling the experience of being sealed alive, Aster was horrified, so many years have passed, and the shadow is still there.
Because the bones have been embedded in the shadow wall, she can't leave the house, and over time, the resentment grows heavier.
She became a ghost, but at first she couldn't leave the shadow wall, and could only scare people near the shadow wall, and over time, this originally exquisite mansion became a ghost mansion.
This mansion was originally the courtyard of the lady of Aster, and the lady was also weak after the haunting, and suspected that the ghost of Aster was not gone, so she invited the Taoist monk to do a few rituals, and pasted the soul-calming talisman paper on the shadow wall to prevent the ghost of Aster from coming out of it.
After that, the lady didn't dare to come here again, and wanted to sell the house, because of the haunted rumors, the house was sold for 20% lower than the original price, but not long after the people who bought the house moved in, they also encountered all kinds of strange and strange things.
The family did not dare to live any longer, and the house was once again resold at a low price.
After being sold several times, the house was no longer in sight and gradually fell into disuse.
