Chapter 246 Host, You Have Great Merit

Jiang Wanying drowned. As soon as her true form was revealed, a circle of wet water marks immediately appeared under her body. Her hair and clothes were soaked and stuck to her body. Her pale face was not made up. The deliberately disguised feeling of sadness and weakness faded, replaced by the grief and indignation of despair and sacrifice.

Gu Nan was stunned for a moment, then looked at herself, still looking like a peasant girl.

She circulated the ghost power in her body and it flowed smoothly. It seemed that the magic seal just now had no effect on her.

Gu Nan supported Jiang Wanying and asked, "How do you feel?"

What else could she do? Jiang Wanying wanted to beat Gu Nan to death, but she couldn't do it, so she could only vent her anger on Ci Ding, "You stinky monk! Untie me!"

Jiang Wanying was an old ghost who had lived for hundreds of years after all. When she got angry, her ghostly aura was overwhelming. Her eerie red clothes fluttered in the wind, her waist-length hair fluttered wantonly, and her bright red nails grew several inches in an instant.

The ghostly aura that covered the sky alarmed the entire forest. The nimble birds fluttered and flew away from this dangerous place. The jungle was dark, the grass and trees were shaking, and the young monk was so scared that he quickly hid beside his teacher.

Jiang Wanying went straight for his face, but Ci Ding remained motionless, not even his robe was moved.

He formed seals with his palms and muttered something, and the ghost energy in the forest immediately returned to its original position. Jiang Wanying screamed and was pressed to the ground by the shadow of a palm print, unable to move. The sizzling sound of the ghost energy being dissolved made people's scalps numb.

It was the first time that Gu Nan had seen such a grand scene. He reacted quickly and stood in front of Jiang Wanying, "Young Master, please show mercy. We have no ill intentions."

Ci Ding glanced at her, a look without any emotion, but because of his overly sharp phoenix eyes, he had the power to pierce through her chest and bones, as if he would burn several holes in her body in the next second.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Gu Nan said again: "Please show mercy."

Jiang Wanying was a fiery-tempered person. Even though her skin was torn to pieces by the phantom, she still refused to accept the result. "Sister Anan, don't beg him. This stinky monk only knows how to bully women! He didn't come to my aid when I was being bullied, and now he's pretending to be righteous. Pah! What's the point of saving all living beings? He's just a bunch of old bald donkeys who are just sitting there doing nothing but eating for free and doing nothing!"

Ci Ding was enraged, raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "Evil creature!"

Another palm fell.

Jiang Wanying was suppressed to the point where she couldn't even scream, and all the evil spirits around her disappeared.

Gu Nan was shocked. The ghost was about to die. How could this be possible!

Gu Nan also revealed his true form, his ghostly aura rising, and sternly shouted: "If you don't stop, I will not be polite!"

"How dare you!" Ci Ding frowned, and his deep voice sounded like the bell of an ancient temple, which almost shocked Gu Nan.

This unparalleled handsome face is extremely beautiful when expressionless, but when angry, it is as powerful as a furious Vajra. As long as he holds a demon-subduing pestle, he can immediately ascend to the temple and become a Buddha.

He wanted to attack Gu Nan, but Hui Wu, who had been watching the fight, spoke up, "Ciding, let her go."

The old monk had spoken, and Ci Ding should have stopped there, but the little ghost on the ground was too unruly, and who knows how much trouble it would cause if it stayed, so he did not withdraw the two palms that were suppressing her.

"The poem is finalized." The old monk emphasized.

Ci Ding was unwilling, but he still closed his palm.

The shadow disappeared, and Jiang Wanying regained her strength. She cursed loudly, "You stinking monk! When I recover from my injuries, I'll skin you alive, pull out your tendons, chop you into pieces, and feed you to the dogs!"

Ci Ding was angry again, and his sword-like eyebrows were furrowed so tightly that they were almost standing upright.

Gu Nan covered Jiang Wanying's mouth with his hand.

Hui Wu: "Donor, please do not commit bad deeds with your mouth."

"Ciding, come back. Today's lunch class has been delayed for too long."

Ci Ding clasped his hands together, turned around and returned to his original position. The monks whose formation had been disrupted quickly adjusted themselves and sat in a circle again.

After a while, the sound of chanting was heard again in the forest.

Jiang Wanying was already injured, and hearing them chanting made her head explode. She crawled down the mountain.

After running a few steps, a golden seal suddenly appeared above her head, trapping her in place and making her unable to move.

Jiang Wanying's eyes turned red with anger, and she gritted her teeth, "You stinky monk!"

Gu Nan tried to run down two more steps, but there was no seal appearing out of thin air to trap her, and the seal that Ci Ding had injected into her body was really useless.

Jiang Wanying was ecstatic when she saw this. "Okay, Anan, help me get rid of this damn thing."

Gu Nan didn't know what was going on and asked the system: "Why am I not affected?"

The system puffed out its chest and said proudly, "The host is brimming with merit, so of course he won't be affected by a small seal~"

Gu Nan seemed to understand, "What does merit mean?"

[The host saved Lin Jingchun, Lin Jingzhe, and Qi Yan in succession, and indirectly saved the three members of the Qi family and Old Madam An. This is a great deed!]

Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Gu Nan has built so many pagodas, which is a great merit.

Her merits extend beyond saving lives. Although the three members of the Qi family were guilty, the law had already determined their fate, and Qi Yan would have committed sin by killing them. Gu Nan restored order, guiding the crooked Qi Yan back to the right path, restoring lost justice, and promoting the improvement of the law for the benefit of future generations. These are all endless merits.

Not to mention that the Lin brothers and Qi Yan were influenced by her and became enthusiastic about charity. The more people who received funding, the greater the influence and appeal of Lin and Qi, and the more merit they would give back to Gu Nan.

As long as the male protagonist does not go astray, Gu Nan will become richer and richer.

But that’s a story for later. What’s most important to Gu Nan now is the merits he has accumulated from saving people.

People who have done good deeds will receive special treatment wherever they go.

Gu Nan was not attracted by the great merit, but was only shocked by the old lady. Was it that the old lady An in the original plot also died?

System: [Yes, in the original plot, not long after Qi Yan died, the old lady became depressed and died.]

Gu Nan felt a little disappointed: "What a pity."

The old lady was a kind person with integrity. If she had discovered the truth earlier in the original plot, perhaps Qi Yan would not have died.

[The host has done a great job. They all escaped the original tragic ending. Don't be sad~]

Gu Nan's mood brightened. "Can merit be used? How?"

System: [It’s useless right now, and can’t be used on others~]

This is just like a carrot dangling in front of a donkey; you can see it but you can't eat it.

Gu Nan could only say to Jiang Wanying apologetically, "I don't know how to help you solve it."

When Jiang Wanying saw Gu Nan in a daze, she had expected this result. It would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed. The sisterhood of more than a hundred years was nothing but this.

But who can blame her for bringing this disaster upon herself? If she hadn't persevered, the current situation wouldn't be here.

She sat down where she was, her spiritless face growing even paler. "This is the Dao Binding Seal. If you can't untie it, then only that stinky monk can. Go away, run far away and don't come back. Our sisterhood ends here."

How could Gu Nan leave? Not to mention that the mission was here, even if there was no mission, he couldn't leave because of Jiang Wanying's words.

She sat down next to Jiang Wanying, pulled up her hand that was burnt black by the seal, and passed on a strong ghost power.
