Chapter 10: Soul Hunting
Aunt Zhang wiped her tears and continued to tell us the story about Jiang Yao and Meng Dieyi.
"Back then, my father's subordinates used Meng Dieyi's life to force Aunt Nine to marry my father, and Aunt Nine was forced to marry my father in order to save her sweetheart's life, but those people deliberately fabricated rumors to ruin Meng Dieyi's reputation in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. It is rumored that Meng Dieyi and the popular student Shen Wei eloped, but in fact, the two of them had already been killed. She sighed softly and turned her head to look at the sleeping eighth aunt, "At that time, the second, third, and fourth aunts formed an alliance and killed the rest of the aunts, and my mother and ninth aunt didn't have an accident because of my father's protection." The matter of Meng Dieyi made a fuss, and Aunt Nine learned that her sweetheart was dead, and she wanted to die for the rest of her life, but the second aunt made it difficult for Aunt Nine in every way, and later because my mother accused the second aunt of being too much, they cut off her tongue. ”
We quietly listened to Aunt Zhang tell the story that belonged to Jiang Yao, thinking that those people were really black-hearted, just for the general's words, they did not hesitate to beat the mandarin ducks, and killed two innocent lives, it can be seen how many people were unscrupulous in order to fight for power and position at that time, and the struggle between the women of the big family was even more bloody and ruthless.
"Aunt Zhang, there is a miserable cry in the western-style building, but Aunt Jiu is too much?" That miserable cry has always been something that Mo Xun never forgets.
Aunt Zhang shook her head and said, "No, it was a girl imprisoned by the second aunt, at that time, the second aunt wanted to make the ninth aunt too disfigured, and she accidentally injured herself, so she invited a master, and the master told her to bathe in the girl's blood to be cured." She secretly killed hundreds of big girls who were like flowers and jade, and when she saw that the paper couldn't contain the fire, she asked her subordinates to spread rumors outside to blame Aunt Jiu. And his father was shot because of the ignorance of his second aunt. ”
"Why did the western-style building disappear later? That fire shouldn't have really been set by Aunt Jiu! "I'm still more concerned about the elusiveness of the western-style building.
Aunt Zhang gently patted the yellowed notebook in her hand and explained, "It was the master, the master who taught the second aunt to kill people and take blood. I don't know what kind of curse he put on, a fire burned the essence, my mother ran away with me, jumped from the second floor, broke her leg, and I dragged her out. ”
"What about Aunt Jiu?"
"Died in the fire."
After listening to what Aunt Zhang said, I felt very depressed, that master is definitely not a good person, he uses crooked magic, such a person deserves to die, but he is also a little capable, Mo Xun has been chasing for so long and has not been able to catch the resentful spirit in the western-style building.
"Now the goal is very clear, it's not Jiang Yao who is to blame, but the second aunt." Don't look for a serious analysis of the root of the problem.
"I don't think it's just the second aunt, didn't Aunt Zhang say that the second aunt is too accomplice?"
"You mean there are three aunts in the mansion?"
"The one we saw in the western-style building doesn't look like a disfigured second aunt."
"Aunt Zhang, what was the second aunt most afraid of when she was alive?" It's still the ghost who thinks thoughtfully, finding out what she is afraid to subdue her, so that he can hit the nail on the head.
"Several aunts and wives have lost their conscience, they have done all the bad things in their lives, and they have never been afraid of heaven and earth, and the only one they are afraid of is my father."
The three of us suddenly lit up, and I gave Mo Xun a look, Mo Xun's face was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to ask.
Aunt Zhang seemed to see the small movement between us, and said: "After my father was shot, his friend took advantage of his relationship to replace the body and bury it in the western suburbs. ”
"Aunt Zhang, don't you mind if we ask your father to deal with the second aunt!" The ghost looked at Aunt Zhang with a smile.
"It's okay, I don't have a good relationship with my father, the reason why my father married so many aunts is because he has no children, and my mother finally conceived, but gave birth to a girl, so he doesn't like me."
We also had a strategy to deal with this matter, and asked Aunt Zhang some necessary questions, and the three of us immediately rushed to the western suburbs, after all, we had to rush back before the early morning and eliminate them in one fell swoop.
I took the simple map that Aunt Zhang drew with a pencil and found the so-called mountain, where there was indeed a tombstone.
"If this person is reincarnated, where can we find it?" I looked at this lonely grave and felt a thousand emotions in my heart, no matter how many great achievements you have, once you make a mistake, you will lose everything.
Although it was your aunt and wife who made a mistake, you turned a blind eye and made a big move, and you don't understand this truth.
"You look at the tombstone stunned, are you very touched, and you can't come to help." Saying that, Mo Xun took a white candle, lit it, put it in front of the stone tablet, and covered it with a glass lampshade, and there were various words on the lampshade, one of which I recognize, it was the word "crossing" in the ancient text of the ghost clan.
"What do you want me to do?" I don't like to be called by her.
"You must not let go of this red rope, let alone let the bell ring"
Seeing that I took the red rope from her hand, she continued to command: "Ghost, you bring the Admiral's Awakened Spirit. After speaking, Mo Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, then put a copper coin the size of a coin in her mouth, she closed her eyes tightly, and folded her hands.
The red rope I pulled in my hand was set on the stone tablet, and after I straightened the rope, it was about two meters away from the stone tablet, and I thought about what Mo Xun meant by "awakening the soul" just now?
Suddenly, Mo Xun stood up, I always felt that there was something wrong with her, take a closer look, there was a shadow on her body, my first instinct was that her soul was out of her body, and sure enough, her body sat on the ground without moving.
"Brother, straighten the line, don't let the bell make any noise."
I nodded in agreement, and when I looked at Mo Xun again, she smiled at me, she knew I could see her. I didn't see any reaction from the ghost, it was clear that she couldn't see Mo Xun's soul.
Under my stunned gaze, Mo Xun walked to the raised mound behind the stele, I held my breath, she touched the collarbone with one hand, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and she slowly entered the ground from the mound, Mo Xun's actions once again refreshed my view of the supernatural, presumably these ghosts have not been seen either.
I turned my head to look at the ghost, she put Xun to her mouth, and the sound coming out of Xun was deep, sad, mournful, and endless, as if she was listening to a thousand years of mourning. The ghost closed his eyes and played, and the mysterious and noble temperament was beyond my reach.
A faint sadness and a hint of sadness rose in my heart in vain, and the wind gusted all around me. I looked up and saw that behind the stele stood a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance, his chest was broad and majestic, his two curved eyebrows were like paint, and his dark and deep eyes were glaring at the ghost, he quickly moved to the ghost's side, grabbed the ghost's neck with both hands, and lifted her high.
Everything came so fast that I didn't have time to react.
