Looking at the shocking wounds on Qi Zhigang's back, Zhao Youliang knew that the other party was not joking with him.

She gestured for him to get dressed before asking the question.

"Old Qi, you just said it's a new house, right? It was just built."

"Yes!" Qi Zhigang nodded repeatedly.

"When building a new house on a new plot of land, we consulted a feng shui master before construction, and everything was fine."

"In addition, the homestead was not a cemetery or anything like that before; it was just a piece of idle land."

"Nothing inexplicable happened during the construction of the house."

Zhao Youliang found it strange upon hearing this: haunted houses are usually old houses.

Or perhaps a murder occurred there, or the feng shui was bad, forming a "gathering place of yin," just like one's own paper-making shop.

But Qi Zhigang's house has absolutely nothing to do with either of those two things, so how could it be inexplicably haunted?

Moreover, judging from his account, the evil spirit clearly came seeking revenge and wanted to kill him!

Could it be related to the immoral things their ancestors did?

At this thought, Zhao Youliang asked, "Old Qi, what exactly does that female ghost look like?"

"I mean, what kind of clothes was she wearing?"

"Clothes?" Qi Zhigang hadn't expected Zhao Youliang to focus on this, so he thought for a moment before answering.

"Blue clothes, long robe, nothing else particularly special."

"Not like it was during the Republic of China era?" Qi Zhigang's answer made Zhao Youliang even more puzzled.

As far as he knew, the evil spirits seeking revenge against the five major surnames all died during the Republic of China era, but this female ghost clearly did not.

"Old Qi, I'll ask something I shouldn't: you haven't killed any girl, have you?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhigang hurriedly shook his head repeatedly: "Quantum, I swear to God, I have never done anything immoral, let alone killed anyone!"

"I know what you mean, but I've only ever had one girlfriend, and that's the woman I'm going to marry!"

After Qi Zhigang finished speaking, Zhao Youliang was even more confused: Just like we said before, everything has a cause and effect.

Ghosts don't haunt people for no reason, let alone appear out of nowhere and inexplicably try to kill them.

"Old Qi, think about it again. Was there anything special about that female ghost? Or did she say anything unusual?"

Since it concerned his own life, Qi Zhigang quickly recalled the events carefully, and after a moment he suddenly spoke.

"Quantum, if we have to say what's special about that female ghost, it's that she doesn't seem to be human!"

After speaking, Qi Zhigang realized the ambiguity in his words and immediately began to explain.

"I touched her when I was resisting; I was able to touch her body!"

"She didn't feel like she was made of flesh and blood, nor was she a zombie."

"It's like...like a wooden figure! Yes, just like a wooden figure!!"

"Wood?!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Youliang pondered for a moment and made a preliminary judgment.

However, to find out whether it's really as I think, I'll have to go to Qi Zhigang's house to see for myself.

Just as Zhao Youliang was about to speak, a group of uninvited guests approached from a distance.

It was the group of sorcerers who were dedicated to finding the Seven Tragic Stones; they called themselves the Thirteen Sects of Gu Spellcasting.

Here's a special explanation: The Thirteen Categories of Gu Spells are a method used by sorcerers to differentiate between different Gu poisons based on their own natal Gu poisons.

Because there are thirteen different types of Gu worms, it is called the Thirteen Gates of Gu Subjugation.

For example, if their natal Gu worm is a snake, their "leader" is called the Snake-shaped One, which is the old lady Zhao Youliang met before.

The fat man who later resembled a toad was actually the Toad Venerable, whose natal Gu worm was a giant toad.

Now, Venerable Toad is standing in front of Zhao Youliang, his face, as big as a meat pie, full of strange and sarcastic expressions.

"Master, what skillful methods you have!"

"They actually managed to command a hundred ghosts to kill the Tibetan monk without even having a magical duel! Amazing, amazing!"

Although he was misunderstood by the sorcerer, Zhao Youliang was too lazy to explain.

Now all he can think about is how to get rid of the paper-making shop and how to save the innocent townspeople.

Knowing the sorcerer's purpose in seeking him out, he decided to get straight to the point.

“Masters, to be honest: what you are looking for is not here with me. We have all misunderstood each other before.”

"You'd better hurry up and look elsewhere!"

The sorcerers naturally didn't believe Zhao Youliang's words, and the leader, Toad Venerable, sneered upon hearing them.

"Master, I know you are highly skilled and can command hundreds of ghosts, but there's no need to be so arrogant!"

"We, the Thirteen Sects of Gu Suppression, have shown the utmost sincerity in our negotiations with you."

"The Seven Tragic Stones are, at best, a decent funerary object in your hands, but they are of great use to us."

"We beg the Venerable Master to reluctantly part with this and grant our request!"

Seeing that the other party had made up their mind about him, Zhao Youliang was on the verge of tears: What bad luck! Why do all sorts of inexplicable things happen to me?

He really didn't know how to explain this to the group of sorcerers in front of him, so he suggested that they just look for something in his shop.

If you find it, take it; if you don't, just don't bother me anymore.

Just as Zhao Youliang was about to speak, he suddenly stood up in fright.

Because he discovered that the ghostly vehicle, which he hadn't seen for a long time, had somehow ended up parked across the street.

All the ghosts on the bus pressed their faces against the windows, looking at this side with a pitiful expression.

Zhao Youliang's unusual behavior immediately caught the attention of the sorcerers, who quickly followed his gaze.

Upon seeing this, they were all shocked: "A...a ghost carriage?!"

"How could you have such a strange thing here?!"

As the sorcerer spoke, he slowly retreated. Once he was certain that the Yin Spirit Cart wasn't coming for him, he immediately turned and ran.

While the Seven Tragic Stones are important to them, they also need to be alive to use them.

If you offend the Yin Spirit Chariot and become a member of it, then all of this is just wishful thinking...

Seeing Zhao Youliang and the sorcerers' unusual behavior, police officer Xiao Zhao immediately realized that something evil had happened again.

Before he could even ask, Zhao Youliang had already lowered his voice and quickly given him instructions.

"Don't speak, don't turn around, just do what you're supposed to do."

"The evil thing that came is dangerous; we can't afford to mess with it!"

In the short time it took to say those few words, Zhao Youliang saw two souls weeping and wailing as they boarded the spirit carriage.

Moreover, these two spirits are not human, but the two evil spirits that were "lost" from my own home!

To be precise, they were the two who volunteered to avenge Zhao Youliang and wanted to drug Guo Zhengde!

"How...how could this happen!"

While Zhao Youliang was still in shock, the Yin Spirit Chariot slowly started and disappeared into the boundless night.

Only a chilling voice remained: "Die, you will all die!"

"Hehehehe!"
