The Old Mu family, who were so poor they jingled, went crazy. It was a time of famine, and everyone was rushing to flee, yet they went out of their way to pick up a little girl.
Ning Bao carr...
Chapter 37 The Devoted Female Ghost and the Unfaithful Man
Ning Bao sneered.
"You're pitiful?"
Does your pitiful state allow you to incite others to hang themselves?
Since you have already left this world, you should no longer linger in the mortal realm; you should be reincarnated.
"Reincarnation?" the hanged ghost asked in a deep voice, his brows furrowed.
"How can one be reincarnated if one's inner conflicts are not resolved?"
Ning Bao paused for a moment. Yes, one cannot be reincarnated until worldly affairs are resolved, but…
"You've already hanged yourself, what else is there to be resentful about? If you were resentful, you shouldn't have hanged yourself in the first place."
The hanged ghost sighed.
"Little Celestial Master, I also want to leave this mortal world and be reincarnated. There is nothing in this world that I am willing to stay for. But after I hanged myself, I found out that my childhood sweetheart was with another woman. How can I be willing to accept this?"
My lover's name is Zhang Sheng. Back then, his family was so poor that they couldn't afford to eat, so I stole my family's food rations to help them.
My parents died early, and I lived with my older brother and sister-in-law.
My brother and sister-in-law have always opposed my relationship with Zhang Sheng, and even pressured me to marry someone else.
Zhang Sheng then instructed me to pretend to hang myself to force my brother to compromise. Before I hanged myself, I handed over the silver hairpin and my private savings, which were left to me by my mother, to Zhang Sheng for safekeeping.
We had originally planned that I would hang Zhang Sheng in the woods to call my older brother over, but I never expected that I would not see my brother even after I breathed my last.
Just as my soul left my body, I saw Zhang Sheng and Cui'er together. They came over to confirm whether I was dead.
I just want to know if Zhang Sheng ever loved me? Did he lie to me? Why didn't my brother stop me when he knew I was going to hang myself...?
Oh dear, this seems a bit like the story of the devoted woman and the heartless man in Grandpa Fan's storybooks.
Ningbao rolled her eyes at the female ghost countless times. Even a three-and-a-half-year-old child like her could tell that Zhang Sheng had a problem, but she didn't expect this female ghost to be a bit silly!
Looking at the female ghost in front of her, who was getting more and more upset as she spoke, crying with tears streaming down her face, Ning Bao frowned. This female ghost was not only stupid but also seemed to be unhygienic, wiping her sleeve with snot.
Ningbao suddenly straightened her little face and said coldly,
"Okay, stop crying now. If you keep crying, it will be dawn and I still need to sleep. My dad said that if you don't sleep, you won't grow tall."
Upon hearing Ning Bao's words, the hanged ghost wisely stopped and obediently knelt on the ground.
"I was wrong today. I shouldn't have lured Little Celestial Master's sister to hang herself, and I shouldn't have absorbed her soul."
I'm afraid I won't stay in the mortal world for long, so I absorb souls to keep my spirit from dissipating.
I have never harmed anyone before; this is the first time.
I am willing to be reincarnated; I beg the young celestial master to show leniency.
Ningbao frowned and pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice,
"Although this is your first offense, it is a fact that you had the intention to harm others."
You were wrongfully killed and did nothing wrong in your life, so you should have been able to be reborn into a good family in your next life, but now that's not the case.
Now you've used up all your public virtue. Even if you don't go to the eighteenth level of hell, you can't be reincarnated as a human again.
I can only send you to the animal realm. Is that alright with you?
As for what you're worried about, I've remembered it all. If I ever run into your lover and older brother, I'll ask them for you. I'll even perform a ritual to burn paper money for you. Even if you've become a beast, I'll find a way to bring you back to your senses."
Hanged Ghost: "…………"
Ningbao yawned sleepily.
The hanged ghost sighed softly.
"Thank you, little angel, for sparing my life. I'm willing to be reborn as an animal. Being human is actually quite tiring..."
Ning Bao, who was dozing off, heard the hanged ghost say he was willing, and immediately raised his chubby little hand to quickly cast a spell.
Ning Bao first separated Mu Zhaodi's soul and spirit from the spirit of the hanged ghost and placed them in the soul-nourishing chamber of the spirit-binding bag.
Then, chanting a spell, he opened the animal realm, and before Ning Bao could urge him, the hanged ghost wisely floated inside.
Ningbao: Is this what they mean by rushing to be reincarnated?
