"No, don't come here!"
"You bastard, you freak, die!"
The eldest lady took out the protective Guanyin jade pendant from her arms. Although there were many cracks on it, it still lit up with a faint Buddha light.
The Buddha's light shone on Hui'er, making her scream and unable to get close.
But before the eldest lady could be happy, countless hairs rushed towards her and directly pierced the Guanyin jade pendant.
With a bang, the Guanyin Jade Pendant exploded into pieces.
The black hair dispersed, and Chen Ziyu stopped taking action.
Hui'er rushed towards the two of them. After a moment, as screams rang out, the eldest lady and Mr. Huang turned into two corpses.
Among them, the death of the eldest lady was the most tragic, with bleeding from all her orifices and a gold hairpin pierced through her neck. Ironically, the gold hairpin was the dowry prepared by Mrs. Xie for Hui'er.
Hui'er floated there, staring blankly at the two corpses. After taking revenge, she seemed to not know what to do and was very confused.
It turned into a stupid state again.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A strong resentment arose from the eldest lady's body, and she faintly gathered into a human shape. She looked at Li Daoxuan and Hui'er with extremely malicious eyes, as if she had transformed into a fierce ghost.
She is not an ordinary person, but has practiced the art of hating victory and has some meager Taoism. Only then can she turn into a ghost so quickly after death.
Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up. Is there such a good thing?
"Burn it for me!"
boom!
Streams of flames spurted out from the Three Realm Gourd, falling on the eldest lady, burning her into charcoal. The fierce ghost struggled and roared, but in the end it could only fly into ashes and be annihilated.
The "Book of Demons and Demons" was opened, and a line of writing appeared.
"In June of the first year of Zhenguan, I killed the evil ghost in Xinyang County and received a reward - a middle-grade magical weapon: a cursed doll!"
"Curse Doll (made from the hair of a woman who died unjustly, covered with human skin, quite spiritual, and can be cursed to death by feeding it with other people's personal belongings.)"
The introduction of this magical weapon made Li Daoxuan's eyes light up. An old yin like him... such a cautious person likes this kind of thing the most.
It’s simply a weakened version of the Nailhead Seven Arrows book!
He stretched out his hand, and a black doll appeared in his hand. It was cold to the touch. The doll had no face. It had its mouth open, as if to express hunger.
Li Daoxuan knew that if you feed it someone else's personal belongings, such as hair, nails, etc., it will eat it and then turn into an appearance similar to that person.
At this time, if Li Doxuan pierces the heart of the doll with his sword, then the heart of that person will also be pierced.
It's so insidious!
Putting the cursed doll into the Three Realms Gourd, Li Daoxuan smiled slightly. Yes, there is another method.
But when he saw Hui'er's current state, Li Daoxuan couldn't help but feel worried.
The resentment on Hui'er's body is dissipating rapidly, which is a good thing, but along with the resentment, there is also Hui'er's ghost.
It seemed that after completing her revenge, she no longer had the desire to live. Her thoughts dissipated and her soul also disappeared.
Countless hair strands poured into Hui'er's body, injecting Yin energy into it.
But no matter how hard Chen Ziyu tried, she couldn't keep up with Huier's dissipation speed.
For the first time, obvious fluctuations appeared in her eyes. Her red lips were slightly opened and she wanted to speak, but no sound came out.
Li Daoxuan patted her shoulder.
"Sister Yu, let it go. Maybe this is her own choice."
Li Daoxuan looked at Hui'er and sighed softly.
Master once said that if a person no longer has any nostalgia for this world, this will happen. Even if he becomes a ghost, his soul will dissipate and return to the void without seeking the next life.
Li Daoxuan sat cross-legged with a solemn expression, raised his fingers, and began to chant aloud.
"The gods of the ten directions are as numerous as sand and dust. They transform into the realms of the ten directions and help the heavens and people. They gather their energy and merits and save the guilty souls with one voice. The guilty souls are really pitiful. I will now speak of the wonderful sutra..."
This is the "Tai Shang Sutra of Saving the Suffering", a Taoist scripture that saves the souls of the dead. His master once asked him to recite it.
Li Daoxuan recalled Hui'er's experience, and his heart arose with compassion. His chanting became louder and louder, and in the end it even sounded like a great bell.
As Hui'er listened to the scriptures, the dullness in her eyes slowly faded away.
I don't know how long it took, but all the resentment in her body had dissipated, and only a thin wisp of her soul remained.
But her eyes were exceptionally clear.
At this moment, Hui'er was a girl with a delicate face and a sunny temperament. She smiled brightly at Li Daoxuan, revealing shallow pear dimples and two cute tiger teeth.
Li Daoxuan understood the gratitude in her eyes.
At least Hui'er was no longer stupid when she was dying.
After a while, Hui'er's soul dissipated and turned into specks of light, disappearing from the world.
Li Daoxuan didn't know whether she chose to be reincarnated in the end, or whether she would rather die, but no matter what she chose, he should respect it.
A small bronze mirror remained in place.
Li Daoxuan was stunned.
Countless hairs rolled up the bronze mirror and handed it to Li Daoxuan.
Chen Ziyu stared at the sweat on his head and his pale face after excessive consumption of mana. The blood on his wedding dress gathered into four small characters.
"She gave it to... you."
After a pause, blood dripped from the red clothes again, forming two words again.
"Thanks……"
Li Daoxuan was startled and suddenly felt happy. Is Sister Yu thanking me? It’s not easy!
He picked up the bronze mirror and felt faint mana fluctuations on it. It should be a magic weapon, but its specific use was unknown. He planned to ask his master when he went back.
But before that, Li Daoxuan had to do one more thing.
He walked to Mr. Huang's body, picked up the money bag containing three hundred taels of gold, and put it in his arms.
"Mr. Huang, I have refunded the money to you, but you were so careless that it fell out again. Now I can only count it as picking it up."
Li Daoxuan murmured: "Master said that I am lucky, and it is true. I picked up three gold ingots before, and now I have picked up another three hundred taels of gold."
At this time, even Chen Ziyu looked slightly sideways at this guy's shamelessness.
"Sister Yu, in order to prevent the government from investigating, can you plant an illusion on the servants to make them think that Mr. Huang and his wife were killed by a ghost, and then I killed the ghost, but unfortunately I couldn't save them."
Master has said that there were some very mysterious yamen in the Tang Dynasty, and many of them were monks from both Buddhist and Taoist sects. The most famous ones were the bad guys headed by Yuan Tiangang, and the Huntian Prison headed by Li Chunfeng.
It's not that he's afraid of them, because the master once boasted... He once said that Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were his defeated generals back then, and they were the little brothers who followed him and shouted.
In this regard, Li Daoxuan felt that the master might have drunk too much.
However, the Tang Dynasty had a vast territory. Although there were monks in these mysterious yamen, their number was limited and it was easy for them to have too many monks and not enough. They focused more on prosperous cities like Chang'an.
For example, in the previous Xiaosha Village, bat demons and snake demons had been causing trouble for many years, but no magician with a government background came to subdue the demons. Perhaps it was not because the local officials did not report it, but because there were simply insufficient manpower to take care of it.
Li Daoxuan is cautious by nature. Mr. Huang is the richest businessman in Xinyang County and has some influence. Just in case, he still needs to be careful.
Chen Ziyu nodded slightly.
A moment later, all the servants were called into the room by Li Daoxuan, and then their eyes became dull...
