Chapter 42: The Female Ghost in Red
"How dare you pretend to be a ghost in front of your grandfather Sun?
As he spoke, he swung his golden rod and slammed it into the well.
"Boom!" I heard a loud bang, and the well was instantly smashed by two-thirds of the great power of the golden hoop rod. Strange to say, the black hair stopped squirming the moment the well was smashed.
Just when Ruan Jiu thought that the crisis was over, he saw that the black hair on the ground suddenly turned into a black stream of water, and stabbed straight towards Sun Wukong above the wellhead.
"Senior brother, be careful!"
Seeing this, Ruan Jiu couldn't help but change his face and blurted out loudly.
As soon as Ruan Jiu's words fell, he saw Sun Wukong swing the golden hoop stick in his hand and smash it towards the bundle of black hair.
Although the black hair is extremely tough, it was instantly turned into powder under the power of Sun Wukong's golden hoop stick.
"Little ghost, dare to sneak attack your grandfather like this?"
Sun Wukong said that, he directly threw the golden hoop stick in his hand into the air, and the latter spun rapidly and fell straight to the well in the courtyard. At the same time, the golden hoop stick, which was as thick as a wrist, began to grow in size, and it didn't take long to block the entire well.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong held his stomach and laughed. And the black hair in the well is miserable. Now that the wellhead is blocked, those hairs are not allowed to enter or exit. After a few moments, cracks began to appear at the wellhead. Then there was a loud bang, and the black well exploded. Countless pieces of rubble flew in all directions.
Ruan Jiu's position was exactly within the attack range of those gravel, and in a hurry, Ruan Jiu secretly recited the Seal Spell. In an instant, a translucent arc-shaped barrier appeared in front of her.
Only a crackling sound was heard, and although the gravel was fierce, it could not break through the protective barrier cast by Ruan Jiu. Soon, the splatters of rubble scattered all over the ground, and everything returned to its previous calm.
Ruan Jiu let out a long breath and was secretly glad that he reacted quickly enough. Otherwise, it is estimated that it would have been hit by those sharp broken stones by now.
The well in the courtyard is now in pieces. However, Ruan Jiu noticed that at the mouth of the broken well, a cloud of humanoid black qi was sneaking towards the outside of the courtyard.
Ruan Jiugang wanted to tell Sun Wukong in mid-air, but the latter had already noticed it.
I saw Sun Wukong blowing lightly towards the humanoid black gas. Then a scream was heard, and the humanoid black qi fell in response. At the same time, a woman in a long red dress appeared in front of everyone.
By the moonlight, Ruan Jiu saw that the woman's face was pale, and a pair of dark red eyes were staring at Sun Wukong above. It was so far away, Ruan Jiu could feel the incomparably strong cold aura on the other party's body.
Because Sun Wukong arranged a spell enchantment around the courtyard, although the woman in red had a resentment to the sky, her mana was inferior to Sun Wukong, and she could only stare at each other with resentful eyes.
Sun Wukong fell to the ground and smiled at the woman in red: "What kind of ghost am I, it turns out that I am a little ghost who died unjustly." ”
Ruan Jiu quietly walked to Sun Wukong's side and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, how do you know that she died unjustly?"
Sun Wukong glanced at Ruan Jiu and explained to her: "Anyone who dies unjustly will have a much stronger grievance than ordinary ghosts. Because of the heavy resentment, they often deliberately avoid the inspection of the ghosts. Some of them are so resentful that they can't even help it. ”
"So powerful?" Ruan Jiu said in surprise.
Sun Wukong nodded, and then looked at the female ghost in red not far away.
"Although I don't know how she was unjustly killed, the weight of her resentment is extremely rare. ”
While the two were talking, they heard the female ghost in red say coldly, "Who are you, and why are you here to me?"
The voice of the female ghost in red was very cold, and even with the True Yuan Protector Ruan Jiu, she still felt as if someone had poured a pot of ice water.
Sun Wukong said: "Don't ask who we are. Let me ask you, are you the one who harmed all the people in this village?"
The corners of the female ghost in red rose slightly, revealing a strange arc.
"What? You're trying to avenge those people?"
Seeing that the other party did not deny it, Sun Wukong asked again: "Are you from this village?"
The female ghost in red didn't speak, but Ruan Jiu vaguely saw a touch of sadness flash in her eyes.
After a long time, the female ghost in red said slowly: "What does this have to do with you?"
Sun Wukong smiled, and the golden hoop stick in his hand stood heavily on the ground. The clash of metal and gravel made a screeching sound in the night. The female ghost in red seemed to be very jealous of the power of the golden hoop stick, and her body trembled slightly unconsciously.
After being silent for a long time, the female ghost in red finally compromised. I only heard her say lightly: "I...... is called Liu Fang, and she is the youngest daughter of the Liu family in the village. Two years ago, my parents married me to Mr. Zhang, a coffin seller in a neighboring village. But I don't want to get married, let alone marry a man who is dozens of years older than me. So I begged my parents to take it back. However, because my mother coveted the dowry given by Zhang Laohan, she said that she would let me marry her. ”
Speaking of this, the voice of the female ghost in red began to sobbed slightly.
Sun Wukong and Ruan Jiu did not urge, but quietly waited for her to finish the story.
"Then I wanted to run away from home, to leave this so-called home. However, what I didn't expect was that on the night I left home, I had just walked under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, and suddenly four or five men jumped out from all around. I know them, they are all from the village, and some of them are even very close to my family. When they saw me alone with my luggage, they asked me where I was going. I didn't dare say that I had escaped, but just as I was about to go back, the men suddenly stopped me. I was so scared that I instinctively cried out for help. Unexpectedly, they directly pushed me to the ground, and then ...... Then ......"
At this point in the story, it's pretty much the same.
The female ghost in red choked up, and her dark red eyes actually flowed red blood.
Ruan Jiu gritted his teeth and clenched his fists with both hands. If it weren't for the other party saying it himself, she would never have imagined that there would be such a terrible thing. Those guys are really inferior to beasts, and they would do such an outrageous thing to an unarmed woman.
However, although he was extremely angry in his heart, Ruan Jiu did not show it too much. She secretly glanced at Sun Wukong beside her, wanting to see if this Monkey King, who was born with a stone monkey, felt the same way as herself.
However, after reading it, Ruan Jiu couldn't help but be slightly disappointed. After listening to the tragic experience of the female ghost in red, Sun Wukong didn't seem too angry. Seeing that his expression was as usual, I don't know if it was because of too much hair on his face, Ruan Jiu always felt that he had been very calm.
