Transmigrated to become a mountain bandit? Well, it's like returning to my old profession. The mountain stronghold was as poor as could be, so we could only start developing the land to achieve...
Mo Lan walked through a thicket of bushes and then about ten meters further. In a small ditch, she saw seven or eight corpses. From a distance, they were nothing, but as she got closer, a pungent smell of blood wafted around her, mixed with a putrid odor that made her want to vomit.
“Tomb Spirit, judging from the current situation, these people have been dead for at least ten days. Why aren’t these ghosts reincarnating? What are they doing lingering here?”
The blurry shadows, like ripples on water, seemed to be sobbing softly.
"Boss, among these spirits, two are filled with resentment. They probably have something they are attached to and are unwilling to leave, thus missing the opportunity to guide them."
Whenever someone dies, the Netherworld passage will open automatically, and these spirits can leave by following the instructions.
However, the opening time is limited. After the time limit expires, the passage closes, and these spirits become wandering ghosts in the human world. Over time, their consciousness will gradually fade. Some spirits will dissipate with the wind, while others will become aimless wandering souls.
The tomb spirit swept over two of the spirits, a man and a woman, their faces filled with resentment. When they noticed a living person approaching, they desperately tried to ram into them, but unfortunately, they could not get closer to Mo Lan even when they were only a meter away. No matter how hard they tried, it was to no avail.
As for the other few spirits, they drifted aimlessly, their consciousness was already very weak, and they could dissipate at any time.
"Since you've encountered them, why not lend them a hand and send them to be reincarnated?" Mo Lan nodded after listening to the tomb spirit's explanation. Helping these ghosts didn't bother her at all.
“Except for that man and woman, the rest can be extradited.”
As the spirit spoke, a passage shimmering with a ghostly light slowly opened in his mind. The ghosts, as if summoned, slowly turned around and drifted into the passage.
But the man and woman were still struggling a meter away from Mo Lan.
Mo Lan looked at the two struggling creatures in front of her and asked, "What are they trying to do?"
"It probably wants to take over your body for revenge or something. Once it's purified, it'll be fine."
As the tomb spirit spoke, a beam of white light shot out, and the two ghosts screamed in agony, their pale faces bleeding and twisted in agony.
When they realized they couldn't break free, their previously resentful faces began to show fear.
Mo Lan looked at them and couldn't help but rub her teeth together. How ugly, how terrifying.
After a cup of tea, the two finally stopped struggling and revealed their faces before they died. They looked to be in their twenties and were quite good-looking.
"So you can be reincarnated like this?" Mo Lan asked the tomb spirit, looking at the two bewildered figures.
"Once your spirit is clean, you may depart." The tomb spirit guided the two ghosts, but they remained unmoved. A moment later, they both knelt down before Mo Lan.
"Thank you so much, young lady, for saving me. I will repay your kindness in the next life!"
"It was nothing, no need for you to repay me. You can leave now." Mo Lan waved her hand, pointed to the soon-to-close passage, and gave a reminder.
The two spirits glanced at the path they had taken back, gritted their teeth, and said, "Miss, we do not wish to enter the cycle of reincarnation. We are unwilling to accept this. We want to go back and ask why you have been so cruel to us, husband and wife?"
As the woman spoke, she kowtowed to Mo Lan again, pleading, "Please, young lady, lend us your help and take us away. If you help us avenge our family, my husband and I will be at your beck and call for all eternity."
"You want to give up reincarnation and acknowledge me as your master?" Mo Lan was surprised. There were ghosts who didn't want to be reincarnated?
