Chapter 187 Why regret when you lose something if you want to cherish it?

An old man was hunched over, with black nails on his hands. He was leaning on a black cane with one hand and seemed to be carrying someone on his back.

Su Nuobai saw him put down the person he was carrying, revealing the face of a beautiful woman.

The woman looked like she was asleep, her skin was slightly sallow, as if she had been ill for a long time.

Her facial features are not delicate, but they give people a soft feeling at first glance.

The old man carefully wiped the invisible dust off her face as if he was treating his beloved.

After the person ate the beauty's skin, their soul was also captured by them and thrown to the old man.

The old man looked at the souls they brought back, and although he felt a little disgusted, he still put them into a cauldron.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and threw out a ball of black flame, surrounding the cauldron.

The soul inside let out cries of pain, and he threw in some strange things from time to time.

He withdrew his hand only when there was no more shouting from inside. When he opened the cauldron, two black pills appeared inside.

He fed a pill into the woman's mouth and carefully wiped the spilled water for her.

The woman's skin color was no longer as sallow as before, but instead delicate and fair.

The old man turned around with satisfaction and let the beauty go out.

The scene ended here, and Su Nuobai returned his hand: "Mobao, eat it!"

Mo Bao happily ate the beauty's skin bite by bite and burped with satisfaction.

The old man in the distance had his contract broken and suffered backlash. He spat out a mouthful of blood, which splashed all over the woman in front of him.

The woman's clothes and skin made a sizzling sound as if they were corroded by sulfuric acid.

A foul stench also emanated, causing the surrounding animals to flee in all directions.

The old man didn't care about his body that was suffering from the backlash, and hurriedly reached out to wipe the woman clean, but no matter how he wiped, the corroded area only got bigger.

Su Nuobai had calculated the old man's position with his fingers: "You go back first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared from the spot.

"No matter how you wipe it, it's useless. She's already dead. What's the point of keeping her body here until now?"

The old man seemed not to hear, and kept taking things out of his robe, stuffing black pills into her mouth without paying.

But there was still no effect, and the woman's face was already showing some yellowed bones.

It's obvious that he died of illness.

"Ah! Why did you come to ruin my plan? I just wanted to keep her." The old man knelt on the ground with red eyes, holding the woman's bones and yelling at her.

"Are you going to let so many people die for her just to keep her?" Su Nuobai looked at the old man with bloodshot eyes.

He is only thirty years old, but he looks as old as an old man.

"What do their lives have to do with me? I just want her to be alive." The old man burst into tears and hugged the woman and cried loudly.

Su Nuobai: "Then what does her life have to do with them? You haven't even let go of their souls."

"I tell you, not only can you not save her now, but your soul in the underworld will suffer greatly. Every person you kill for her will only increase her sinful debt."

"People who shouldn't have to endure so much suffering now have to walk on mountains of swords and plunge into cauldrons of oil every day, and they don't even have the chance to be reborn."

"That's the love you have for her."

The old man held the bones and shook his head: "No, it's not like that, you lied to me."

"He said that as long as I keep doing this, she will come back and her soul won't suffer in the underworld."

Su Nuobai formed seals with his hands and poured a talisman into his body: "Then go and see for yourself."

When the old man opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the eighteenth level of hell.

The woman in front of him was very familiar to him, the woman he loved. Now she looked numb and was walking towards the mountain of swords step by step.

If she paused for a moment, Yaksha would whip her and tell her to hurry up.

The woman screamed in pain, but still didn't dare to stop. The pain that pierced her soul made her not notice that there was another person beside her.

"Meimei." The old man wanted to touch her. Such torture made him so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.

Su Nuobai let him experience the whole process, and when he came back, he was almost crazy.

"You must be lying to me. Meimei won't suffer. I killed all these people. She has nothing to do with it. If you want to punish someone, punish me."

"Please let her go. It's all my fault. I've let her down. It's my fault."

The old man was lying on the ground crying so hard that he could hardly stand up.

Su Nuobai raised his hand and destroyed all his evil cultivation, and sent a message to Qi Yu: "Master Qi, the murderer in the beauty skin case has been caught, please send someone to take him into custody."

Qi Yu was called up in the middle of the night to work. Seeing that his wife was sleeping soundly, he could only tiptoe around and arrange for someone to take over.

After Su Nuobai and other yamen runners arrived, they explained the whole cause and effect of the matter.

As for the rest, let the local county magistrate make it up himself. She is not responsible for making up stories to deceive the people.

She had just seen a lot of things from the old man's face.

Wan Mingliang's family background was quite wealthy, and he fell in love with his wife at first sight, but his wife's family background was not worthy of him.

But for her, he still insisted on marrying her despite his family's opposition.

They were thought to be a match made in heaven, but after they got married, Meimei realized that Wan Mingliang was only superficially glamorous.

I have been oppressed by my parents since I was a child. I have no sense of responsibility. I am educated but unwilling to do anything. I just keep escaping.

Whether it was family matters or finding him a job, he refused for various reasons.

The Wan family blamed all these mistakes on Meimei, saying that she was of low standard and could not discipline her husband well.

Meimei had no choice but to study hard and manage the affairs of her husband's family's inner house and property.

After a long time, the body can no longer bear it and gradually develops illness due to overwork.

Wan Mingliang still travels with his friends every day. Although he doesn't seek out prostitutes, he often gets drunk all night and doesn't go home.

Even when Meimei was dying, he was still drinking with his friends.

After he sobered up and the beauty was gone, he realized how wrong he had been. This was the woman he truly loved.

But when she died, she said she didn't want to be buried with him.

At this time Xuan Ming appeared and told him that he could resurrect Mei Mei and gave him two beauty skins for him to make a contract.

She even taught him how to use his soul to refine pills. As long as he took one pill for her every day, Meimei could ensure that her body would not decay.

After a long time, she will come back naturally.

Wan Mingliang believed it and gave up twenty years of his life.

As long as his Meimei is alive, he will still gain something even if she stays with him for a year.

Su Nuobai looked at Wan Mingliang who was taken away and said: "Fool, if you really cherish it, why regret it when you lose it."
