Chapter 38: The Dust Settles
"Daddy... Mother..."
A trace of clarity was recalled in the dark eyes of the resentful spirit, and the title that had not been mentioned again for twenty-five years blurted out the moment he saw Baili, and even he himself was stunned.
Baili changed his head to a holding posture and pretended to pat on his disembodied body, "Baby, I'm here to pick you up." β
A layer of fog rose in front of his eyes, his voice choked, and finally he cried: "You come to pick me up... But I'm deadβ"
*
Twenty-five years ago.
The children who were taken with him were all kept in the same room.
The little boy who had just been caught was a little chubby, and he moved towards him little by little, poking him with his stubby fingers. "My name is Yang Yue... What's your name? β
"My name is Baby."
"Baby? Why did you come up with such a name? Yang Yue's sad little eyes blinked at him, a little scared, so he whispered: "Baby, your family must be very precious to you by naming you this name." That... When will they come to your rescue? Can you take me with you then? β
The baby buried his head in the crook of his arm and said in a more sad tone than he did: "My father and mother didn't know that I was gone." β
Yang Yue sighed in disappointment, suddenly like a frosted eggplant, and her little eyes were even more unfocused.
The baby showed a pair of eyes and asked, "Why don't you expect your father and mother to save you?" Don't they like you? β
Yang Yue sniffed and said vaguely, "They don't care about me... My grandfather may have noticed that I'm missing by now..."
Yang Yue suddenly felt a hand patting him on the back, and the baby comforted him: "He will definitely tell your father, and we will be saved when the time comes." β
"Hmm."
However, they did not wait for that time.
That same night the strong men who had bound them came in, and sealed their mouths with strips of cloth, and tied their hands and feet with ropes, and when they had done everything, they were all taken out into the courtyard.
I saw several large jars in the courtyard, and a young man stood beside the altars. His face was hazy under the moonlight, but Yang Yue still recognized it at a glance, it was the person in the carriage today!
Zang Shuping glanced at them, only as if they were tools to collect money, and there was no warmth in his eyes. "Do it."
"Yes."
Although they were small, they instinctively felt fear and struggled. The big man grabbed the restless child and slashed at the back of the neck with a hand knife. After they were knocked unconscious, they were put into jars one by one and buried alive in the ground.
The children in the jar just fainted, and when they woke up, they found themselves locked in a narrow space, with no light inside, and no sound could be heard except for their own wails and struggles. The body could only curl up, the air gradually diminished, and the feeling of suffocation aroused their fear and resentment little by little, dragging them into the abyss until they were completely integrated into death.

"What's the use of you coming to me now? I'm dead......"
Not only him, but the other resentful spirits also whimpered and cried, and the cries around him became more and more sharp, and Zhang Qining's eyes couldn't help but darken.
"Are you alright?" Zhan Suiyu felt that something didn't seem quite right with her.
Zhang Qining stabilized his mind and said, "... It's okay. β
Baili: "Baby, everything will be fine." β
"I want a body, my father and mother, I want a body! I can use that girl's body! That's mine! β
"You fart!" Zang Chengji protected his wife by his side and hugged his daughter to death. "This is my daughter's body, don't even think about it!"
Zhan Sui Yu They were unreliable, Zang Chengji looked at Long Xinze on the roof, and hurriedly said, "Dao Chief! The Taoist leader quickly accepted this group of evil obstacles, and I will definitely go to Guiguan to add incense in the future, donate money, and reshape the golden body of all immortals! β
Long Xinze smiled, "Your mortal eyesight is not bad, but you are a poor and lonely person, and you don't have a Taoist temple to settle down, so you can't accept your kindness." β
Zang Chengji gritted his teeth and said, "As long as you keep my family safe today, I, I'll build a new gym for you!" β
Long Xinze was surprised: "Build a new Taoist temple? β
"Yes!"
"Alas, what a pity." He sighed, pointed to Baili and said, "I am with him, and that resentful spirit is his son, how can I accept it?" Besides, shouldn't your family pay for the sins you have created? β
"! Lao Tzu has never done anything hurtful, why should he bear the black pot? Wraiths, huh! Lao Tzu told you that Lao Tzu had already separated from the Zang family, and their family's affairs had nothing to do with our family! The man who killed you is already dead, and you want to take revenge and go to him, but if you can't do it, I will drag the corpse out, and you will go and whip the corpse. His son is dead, but his grandson is still there, and I want you to find him, stay away from my house!" β
Zhan Sui Yu: "This Zang Chengji, it's really..."
Zhang Qining: "I don't think there's anything wrong with what he said, it's reasonable." β
β...β
Long Xinze: "If you want to open up, your daughter is his reincarnation, and this is indeed his body." β
What he said was like thunder on the ground, Zang Chengji was stunned holding his daughter's hand, and Huang was also stunned.
Zang Yingying is the reincarnation of this resentful spirit, and the compatibility between the soul and the body must be quite high, and it is no problem to take it away. No wonder this resentful spirit is Zang Yingying's obsession so deep, it must be sensitive.
Long Xinze: "I promised to help the tree spirit over there find a son, and your daughter happens to be his reincarnation." It took me a lot of effort to find her! He was still proud.
I see, so before Suzhou Mansion lost the child, it was Long Xinze who was helping Shuling find his son. On the night of the Flower God Festival, it was the tree spirit who stayed with her before finding Zang Yingying, and this was what she was hiding. Zhan Suiyu suddenly understood.
"After finding it, he has been staying by your daughter's side, and he didn't expect you to return to Zang's house, but he found that there was another touch of his son's breath. His daughter is in trouble, he is helping, and his son wants a body now, so you should also help. β
Long Xinze smiled politely, and what he said was all crooked.
"No need." Baili: "The baby has been reincarnated and will live well in the future, and I will not interfere with her life." β
"Daddy, Daddy, Motherβ" The spirit formed by the baby's resentment looked at him with some despair.
"Baby, you are too obsessed, plus the spiritual power I once fed you, but at this time it has become a shackle, and you have used your resentment to cultivate into a spiritual body. As long as you practice properly, there is no other way, but if you insist on committing murder and creating and killing again, you will definitely be intolerable by the Heavenly Dao, and then even I will have no choice. β
The baby didn't speak, but he knew that Baili would not lie to him, and Baili would only be good for him.
β... Will you leave me behind? Will I be able to stay with you forever? β
Baili's eyes were stunned, in the baby's obsession, in addition to the resentment of being buried alive, a large part of it also has the regret of separating from him back then.
"No, I won't leave you alone, and I won't give you to someone else."
Baili: "As for others, cause and effect have their own conclusions, and good and evil will be rewarded in the end, so don't be obsessed with this." Later, I will cross you to the dead. β
οΌ
The case was successfully concluded, and Baili Chaolong Xinze said, "Thank you for this time." β
I only heard a chuckle in the wind, but Long Xinze, who was still sitting there just now, had already disappeared.
Baili used cultivation to dispel the children's grievances, and clumps of black gas fell to the ground, all of which returned to their former appearance.
"Go to the place where there is light, don't want to worry, don't look back."
The children did as he was told, except for the chubby boy, who was still standing there, with his head bowed and not knowing what to do.
Baili: "What's wrong with you?" β
"I... I couldn't see the light, I didn't know where to go. β
Baili couldn't help but wonder a little, did this kid still have any ties in the world?
Zhang Qining looked at the boy and suddenly remembered something.
"Your name is Yang Yue?"
The boy looked at her in surprise and nodded. "How do you know?"
"Your grandfather is waiting for you in the tea shed outside the city, go quickly."
After Zhang Qining finished speaking, a bright spot suddenly appeared in front of him, circling around him like a firefly, leading him in one direction, and he naturally followed.
The road ahead that I can't see clearly is slowly becoming clearer.
