Just now, they saw Su Muxi waving the peach wood sword, the talisman paper spontaneously combusting without fire, the dazzling red light emitted by the peach wood sword, and the yellow light emitted by the talisman paper. This series of scenes shocked them greatly.

Although she was still afraid at this time, Zhou Xiaofang's occupational disease as a reporter kicked in.

She was very curious about the conversation between Su Muxi and the female ghost. She wanted to listen to it, maybe she could dig out some explosive news materials from it.

So she mustered up the courage to ask, "Master, can I also hear what that person said?"

Zhou Xiaofang gestured in the direction Su Muxi was looking.

At this time, Wang Mingxue and Ai Qing were naturally not far behind.

Wang Mingxue: "And me, I want to listen too."

Ai Qing: "I want to listen too."

Su Muxi did not refuse. He took out three pieces of talisman paper from his arms, chanted two spells, and then quickly stuck the talisman paper on the three people.

At this moment, the three of them saw the female ghost lying on the ground at the same time.

Although they had prepared themselves mentally several times, when they saw the female ghost with a pale face and long flowing hair, the three of them couldn't help but show expressions of fear on their faces.

However, the three of them reacted quickly and returned to their normal expressions after a while.

At this time, the cold voice of the female ghost sounded in their ears.

"My name is Xie Wan'er, and I live in Puxi Town in Jiangnan."

"Our Xie family has been in business for generations and was once the most dazzling family in Puxi Town."

"And the reason why I'm what I am now is all thanks to one person..."

It turns out that Xie Wan'er has an unknown tragic past.

She was originally a stunning beauty, kind-hearted and talented, and could be said to be the object of countless men's dreams.

But Xie Wan'er has a childhood sweetheart, a fiancé named Li Han.

Everyone felt sorry that Xie Wan'er was like a flower stuck in cow dung.

When Li's father was young, he saved Xie Wan'er's father's life. Although the Li family was just an ordinary small merchant, Xie's father was grateful to Li's father.

She decided to betroth her daughter to the son of the Li family, and the two of them became engaged.

Although Li Han has an ordinary appearance, he has been very smart and clever since childhood. He is not willing to be an unknown small businessman like his father, but is determined to seek fame and fortune through hard study.

But at that time, if a scholar wanted to stand out, he needed not only talent but also a strong background and wealth.

Li Han was attracted by Xie Wan'er's family's wealth and status, believing that this was a shortcut to help him realize his dream.

So, he began to be attentive and caring to Xie Wan'er.

As it turned out, in the initial stage, the Xie family did invest a lot of financial support in Li Han's career.

Hard work pays off, and with the help of the Xie family, Li Han finally got what he wanted and secured a place in the officialdom.

At this time, Xie Wan'er was getting older and her marriage could no longer be delayed.

Xie's father also began to urge Li Han to marry Xie Wan'er as soon as possible.

But things are different now. Li Han is now in a high position and has great power, and his ambitions and desires are growing.

At this moment, he was wholeheartedly pursuing higher power and status, so how could he take a mere merchant's daughter seriously?

What's more, his immediate superior favors him and even expresses his willingness to marry his beloved daughter to him.

For Li Han, this is undoubtedly a great opportunity to rise to the top and make further progress!

But the Xie family helped him a lot, which was known to everyone in Puchi Town.

He knew very well that if this matter was not handled properly, not only would he be branded as ungrateful, but it might also become a stumbling block in his career.

So after careful consideration, he decided to take the risk.

He sent someone to secretly deliver a letter to Xie Wan'er, asking her to meet him at a restaurant.

He secretly bribed the waiter in the restaurant to put drugs in Xie Wan'er's tea.

When Xie Wan'er fell unconscious, he hired someone to sneak into the room and took the opportunity to defile Xie Wan'er.

When Xie Wan'er woke up and found herself in such an unbearable situation, she was immediately terrified and struggled desperately.

However, it was too late. Li Han calculated the timing and appeared, pretending to have witnessed this scene by chance.

Li Han pretended to protect Xie Wan'er and had a fake fight with the hired man, letting him run away on purpose.

At this time, many people in the restaurant had witnessed Xie Wan'er's miserable condition.

After this incident, Xie Wan'er chose to hang herself because she could not bear the tremendous humiliation and pressure.

Li Han naturally married his boss's daughter.

He rose rapidly through marriage into a powerful family.

Li Han finally got what he wanted and gained greater power and a higher status.

Wan'er's soul is filled with resentment and cannot find peace after death.

She wandered in the world of the living, waiting for the return of the man who had betrayed her.

But she waited year after year, but never saw Li Han.

In desperation, she could only place her soul in the mirror that Li Han gave her, enduring the torment day after day.

After hearing this, several people sighed together and felt sympathy for Xie Wan'er's experience.

It's another clichéd story, but it's being played out in every era.

The infatuated men and resentful women in the world always repeat similar yet different stories.

Ai Qing stared at the "mirror" he had just bought on the bedside table, and a wave of fear surged in his heart.

She never imagined that there was a female ghost hidden in this mirror.

At the beginning, she fell in love with this antique mirror at first sight on Fengshui Street. She couldn't let it go and would put it on the bedside table to look at it carefully every day.

Thinking that she might be caressing Xie Wan'er's head and face every day, she couldn't help but feel her hair stand on end.

She secretly vowed that she would never buy antiques again.

Looking at the sad Xie Wan'er at this moment, Wang Mingxue murmured to himself.

"There really are ghosts in this world..."

After listening to Wan'er's story, Su Muxi made a decision in her heart.

She decided to help Wan'er find Li Han's soul so that they could have some closure.

It’s just that the time was too long ago, maybe Li Han had already been reincarnated, but she still wanted to give it a try.

Xie Wan'er is also a poor victim. Only by untying Xie Wan'er's knot in her heart can her soul truly rest in peace.

Su Muxi asked softly, "Do you know Li Han's birth date?"

Xie Wan'er seemed lost in thought, as if recalling something from long ago.

After a while, she slowly said, "I know. We wrote down our birth dates when we got engaged."

Xie Wan'er told Su Muxi Li Han's birth date and time.

Su Muxi turned around and gave instructions to Zhou Xiaofang and the others.

"Go prepare some rice and water, I'll need it later."

Ai Qing said he understood, and then quickly went to prepare the necessary items according to Su Muxi's requirements.

Zhou Xiaofang and Wang Mingxue also went to help.
