Although Zegui did not pose any threat to them for the time being, several people did feel a little worried after hearing the words of "Qing Ting".
As "Qing Ting" said, this Zegui was a member of the Moon Watching Altar after all. If they obtained a matching body, they would probably be hunted down by Zegui in the future and would have no power to fight back.
However, hearing Qing Ting say that someone could help them cheered them up, and they quickly asked who this person was. Qing Ting's answer really made them look confused.
"The third Zegui?" Mu Fengchun asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that you were only identified as the second one, so how could you say that you were the third one?"
"Although this is correct, this third Zegui should indeed exist!" Qing Ting frowned and affirmed.
"Why do you say that?" Mu Fengchun asked.
"Do you know what the Seven Souls are?" Qingting did not answer Mu Fengchun's question, but asked aloud.
"Uh... the seven souls are simply the seven emotions of human beings: joy, anger, sadness, fear, love, evil, and desire. Of course I know that."
"Then you will understand what I mean after listening to my explanation..." Qingting nodded, looked at the sky, and continued: "That day when I was split into two by the man in white with that weird thing, I have separated evil, desire, and fear from the seven souls. The remaining four souls should be joy, anger, sorrow, and love. But when I recovered later, I found that only three souls were left in my body. , but I don’t know where the happy soul has gone..."
"The two souls of evil and desire are extremely dangerous and murderous. I struggled with them for a long time before stabilizing them. Therefore, they lost control when they separated from my three souls. If they are allowed to seize the body, it will only allow evil and desire to seize my body. The two souls of desire are getting stronger and stronger, so I said that once it gets a suitable body, it will be your death..."
After hearing Qing Ting's explanation, everyone understood. In particular, Mu Fengchun understood even better. He had been affected by the resentment of the moon before, so he naturally felt the obvious difference. But what he didn't understand was that Qing Ting had always said that he had never gone down the mountain, so why was he in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes before? When you meet Gray Vine, will you feel the same impact as Qingting?
However, there were many doubts about it, and Mu Fengchun did not dare to ask more questions. After all, there were still angry souls in Qingting. If they made others unhappy, it would be bad to chop them up on the spot to keep them company. Choose to remain silent.
Qingting didn't notice anything strange about Mu Fengchun, and Mu Fengchun didn't see Qingting's face getting darker and darker: "I thought about the details of your fight with Zegui again, and suddenly I thought that Zegui was Use Yeze to bind you... Logically speaking, it doesn't have to be so secure! It seems that when we fought with you, the fear of the Yeze ghost should have gained the upper hand! And if you seriously injured it, I'm afraid it would make the evil and lustful spirits The restraint I have received has slowed down a lot. I am only worried that the two souls of evil and desire will take the opportunity to devour the fearful soul. Once they lose their restraint...even if they find the happy soul, they may not be able to help you..."
"..." Everyone's mood fell from the mountains to the ground in just one night. They finally climbed back along the vines, but they didn't expect a strong wind to sweep through and throw them into the trough.
"Then what's the use of doing this? I don't think it's worth bothering, just wait for death..." Hui Siling pouted.
"Everything seems certain, but there are variables running through it. No one can be sure whether tomorrow or the disaster will come first! Maybe by that time, there will naturally be magic soldiers descending from the sky to help you survive the disaster!" Qing Ting said lightly, But the voice became extremely ethereal, "Everyone, remember! Only by being born in sorrow, dying in peace and reverence, can you do anything!"
After talking to everyone, Qing Ting sighed slightly and said reluctantly: "The moonlight is so beautiful... I'm afraid if I take one more look, I won't be able to let go..." Even so, his eyes lingered on Mrs. Xue's face. I don’t know if the moonlight is beautiful because of the person, or if the beauty is intoxicated by the moonlight.
Mrs. Xue's eyes were also shining brightly, and she said, "Jun Qingting, is there any way I can..."
Before Mrs. Xue could finish speaking, Qingting raised her hands and hugged her into her arms, and whispered softly against her ears: "I am a Ze ghost. I can only hide in the dark night and keep company with chaos. Human beings Nothing in the world has anything to do with me anymore. I used to see with my naked eyes, but I couldn't see through my mind. But since I became a Zegui, I started to see the world with my mind's eye, and found that everything is clearer than ever... You stay in Luo Every sad word from Yueting has left a drop of tear in my heart. I’m afraid I won’t be able to repay it in this life... If there is an afterlife, the tassel will be like a mountain, and the little dragonflies will accompany it like a sea..."
"Jun Qingting..." The sadness that Mrs. Xue had accumulated for a long time finally poured out, and her clothes were wet with tears.
"Madam, be careful! Madam...Madam...what are you going to do to Tao'er?" Tao'er had just woken up. She was ready to deal with the situation in front of her, but found herself tightly held in Mrs. Xue's arms, and her body froze. His face turned red with embarrassment.
Because Qingting didn't want too many people to be involved, it deliberately hid it. If she hadn't accidentally injured Mrs. I was confused about the situation in front of me.
"Hey! You guys have made Madam angry, let us teach you a lesson!" Xing'er Li'er's pretty face was slightly angry, and she was about to take action.
"Xing'er and Li'er must not be rude! Madam, I just slipped my foot and asked Tao'er to support me a little..." Mrs. Xue said, secretly twisting her hand on Tao'er's waist, and Tao'er quickly responded: "Ouch! Madam! You're right, I am indeed... supporting Madam..."
After hearing this, Xing'er and Li'er secretly murmured in their hearts, how could anyone help someone into their arms? Although they looked suspicious, they only dared to think about it in their hearts, nodded and stepped aside.
"Mrs. Xue, what happened to the shadow in the Luoyue Pavilion just now?" Tao'er saw that Mrs. Xue's eyes were slightly red and thought it was caused by the lady's illness. She didn't think much about it, but still asked cautiously.
"It was just a misunderstanding... Fortunately, the misunderstanding has been resolved. You should follow me back and rest for a while." Mrs. Xue said with a faint smile.
Mu Fengchun rolled his eyes when he heard this, thinking that although Mrs. Xue said she was Wu Fan's godmother, she and others had nothing to do with her. In addition, she overheard the ceremony, which made her even more frightened, so she quickly refused. : "Haha...Mrs. Xue, passing by here today is already too much of a disturbance. Let's just say goodbye and say goodbye!"
"That's right, after all, we can't help with the ceremony! Farewell!" Yu Siling interrupted.
"Ritual? Who did you listen to?" Mrs. Xue's face condensed when she heard this, and she looked at Tao Xingli and the others, who all shook their heads.
Seeing Mrs. Xue's expression changed drastically, Mu Fengchun even wanted to strangle Yu Siling to death. He was really afraid of what would happen. If he didn't mention this matter, Mrs. Xue might still be able to let them go, since she already knew that they knew. , there is no reason to let them go.
"Originally I planned to hide it from you... Since you already know... it's better not to leave yet. After all, you can keep company on the road together..." Sure enough, Mrs. Xue hesitated for a moment and gave the answer they least wanted to hear.
Hearing "companion on the road", Mu Fengchun and others trembled in their hearts. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xue seemed to be calm and calm, but she was already murderous and a little nervous.
Mu Fengchun glared at Yu Siling for a few times, then smiled apologetically and said: "Mrs. People run away quickly.
"Wufan's friends are my friends, madam? Why are friends so polite? If you continue to be polite, don't blame me for being rude." Mrs. Xue said coldly.
"This...this is a matter of death! Who wants to be polite to you!" Mu Fengchun couldn't bear it anymore and simply broke the jar.
"Yes! Mrs. Xue, this is a matter of death... It's better to let them leave!" Upon seeing this, Tao'er quickly dissuaded her in a low voice.
Xing'er and Li'er also nodded repeatedly when they heard this.
"Hmph! I was worried that the ceremony was poorly prepared, and someone came to my door. How could I let them leave like this?" Mrs. Xue raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Tao Xingli! Invite them back to the Moon Viewing Altar! If there is any If they don't comply, I will tie them up even if they are tied up!" Mrs. Xue gritted her teeth as she said this request, then turned around and left Luoyue Pavilion.
"Yes... Madam..." The three of them responded reluctantly, then turned to look at the people behind them and said, "Do you want us to take action, or do you want to follow?"
Mu Fengchun and the others looked around and thought: How can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves? At this time, the bright moon was in the sky, and they were definitely no match for the three of them. If they resisted, they would definitely suffer a lot of torture. It would be better to wait until the sunrise tomorrow to find an opportunity to sneak out, so the few of them could only follow dejectedly. Go up.
…
In the room, Mrs. Xue took off her clothes and soaked in the tub. The barrel was filled with brown liquid, and the bitter taste of the liquid filled the room.
"Is everything settled?" Mrs. Xue leaned lightly on the bucket, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and said lightly.
"Back to Madam, everyone has made arrangements." Tao Xingli and the others responded while standing outside the screen.
"That's good! You must send someone to keep an eye on them this time, and you will be more sure of tomorrow's ceremony!" Mrs. You were not allowed to talk nonsense before, remember?"
"Remember...remember..." Tao Xingli and the other three said in unison, and then prepared to open the door and leave.
But just as they stepped out of the door, they almost bumped into several female disciples holding sundries.
When these female disciples saw the people in front of the door, they quickly put down their belongings and said, "I've seen three senior sisters..."
At this time, Mrs. Xue heard the voice and slowly came to the door. Several disciples quickly saluted and said: "I have seen Mrs. Xue..." Then they whispered: "Mrs. Xue, according to your instructions, their house has been tidied up. alright…"
"I understand, you should go back too!"
After hearing this, several disciples quickly picked up the sundries and left in a hurry, but they did not notice a piece of paper falling slowly and falling at Mrs. Xue's feet.
Mrs. Xue bent down to pick up the note, frowned and read the text on it: "It is your own fault if you miss you and don't see you! I only hope that your heart is like mine, and I will spare your life! Who wrote this? What nonsense? s things?"
Tao Xingli and the other two people in the distance felt that the words sounded very familiar. After thinking about it again, they realized that this was not the note they had lost before.
Their faces instantly turned red to the base of their ears. They wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl in, and hurriedly quickened their pace to escape from here.
