Chapter 267 The Eloping Ghost
Madam Li looked at Old Madam Li without saying anything.
Madam Li nodded: "I knew that retribution would come sooner or later."
She twirled the Buddhist beads in her hand as she finished speaking: "I married him because of the matchmaker's words. Only after we got married did I realize he was a beast."
"As long as he sets his eyes on a woman, there's no woman he won't try to get. I don't know how many times we've argued about this. He got tired of me and sent me and my son to another courtyard."
"I can't control him, I can only take care of my own son. He never picks on rich and powerful women, he only picks beautiful women from poor families."
She was silent for a while when she said this: "I did report it to the police, but no one was willing to come forward to testify."
"They despise shame. The women he abused were either sent to become nuns or sold by their families."
"Most people just paid the money and settled the matter, so I couldn't say anything. Gradually, my heart gave up and I didn't want to ask about it anymore."
"But I didn't expect this girl to have such a strong personality this time. When I found out and wanted to save her, it was too late."
Su Nuobai looked at her face and knew that what she said was true. She had thought about helping them.
However, these families chose to take the money and settle the matter, not wanting to make a big deal out of it for fear of embarrassment.
She looked at Mr. Li's face. This man inherited his mother's kindness and integrity. He was a good man just as Butler Li said.
"Your house has been renovated before."
Madam Li nodded and said, "Well, we only moved in after he died and came back to take care of his funeral. Otherwise, I really wouldn't want to come here at all."
"There's a broken bowl hidden in the eaves of this house, so Old Master Li would hang himself there, and Master Li would also go to the same spot."
"This is a hidden evil in Feng Shui. I'll help you remove the bowl and the evil will be broken."
"You don't need to look for the roofer. He did it just to avenge his daughter. She's his only daughter."
"Old Master Li killed someone, so it's natural for him to want revenge. But the price he paid is the disaster that will affect three generations. He has no descendants, so let this be the end of his life."
Su Nuobai stood up and walked out of the house. He found the place where the evil spirit was hidden, raised his hand to take down the broken bowl on it and smashed it directly.
Madam Li looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and said, "Thank you, Master Su. We will never come here again."
"I only collected the lowest rent for the good farmland at home and rented it out to the people living nearby. I will also do more good deeds in the future to make up for the mistakes I made over the years."
After she finished speaking, she asked Butler Li to bring a box of silver: "These are the rewards. Thank you, Master Su."
Mo Bao reached out and took the box.
"Madam Li, it is your kindness that saved my son's life. Goodbye!" Su Nuobai said and left with the two little ones.
"What happened to the person who released the evil spirit?" Xiao Jiang asked her curiously.
"Dead. He hanged himself at home the day he learned that the old man of the Li family had died."
Su Nuobai looked at the Li family's mansion and said, "But he didn't expect that this hidden evil would bring disaster to three generations."
Mo Bao sighed: "It's a sin."
"Let's go, let's go back and tell fortunes." Su Nuobai patted their little heads and returned to the city.
There was already someone sitting at their stall. When he saw them coming back, he quickly stood up and said, "Master Su, I need your help with something."
The man was wearing a silk dress and looked quite rich.
"What's up?"
"Actually, it's not me, it's my friend. He wrote a letter asking me if you can go somewhere else to solve the strange things." Ren Ting smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Tell me what's going on first." Su Nuobai sat down and prepared to listen slowly.
"Here's what happened: My friend bought a piece of land and planned to build a farm. There was a big rock there."
"He had the big rock moved away, and then strange things started happening. Every night there were bloody footprints nearby, and intertwined trees would bloom."
"He immediately sensed something was wrong and didn't dare to move. He went around looking for people to look at the problem, and spent a lot of money, but the problem remained unresolved."
"Now this piece of land is empty and I dare not touch it."
Su Nuobai: "Did anyone die?"
"That's not the case. He didn't mention that in the letter." Ren Ting quickly shook his head.
"Give me the address and I'll go over and take a look. It shouldn't be too troublesome." Su Nuobai already had a guess in his mind.
Ren Ting quickly gave her the address and handed her the reward: "Master Su, this is from me. He will give you more rewards when you get there."
Mo Bao took the silver note and put it into his small bag.
Uncle Jia and the others saw her leaving again and said, "It seems like she won't be coming back this time."
"I really won't come this time. You all can go away!" Su Nuobai said as he left with the two little ones in a paper carriage.
It’s not that I don’t want to use the ghost path, but I just threw a bunch of ghosts in and I’m afraid of being blocked halfway.
Qingliu Town.
Su Nuobai found the Liang family according to the address and explained his purpose.
When Liang Ji saw her, he didn't even bother asking if it was true or not. He immediately took her to see the land he had bought: "Master Su, this is it."
What Su Nuobai saw was different from what Liang Ji saw.
The intertwined branches entangled a man and a woman, turning them into earthbound spirits, unable to leave and unable to reincarnate.
The male ghost thought it was another incompetent master and sighed, "I don't know when a truly capable master will appear and let us leave."
"Are you tired of being with me for so long?" The female ghost looked at him angrily.
"How could that be? I just thought that if I could leave, I could show you around. There are still many places we haven't been to, and many things we haven't done together."
The male ghost hugged her lovingly.
The ghost girl smiled and put her arm around his waist: "It's actually quite nice here, but we seem to be disturbing others."
"There's nothing we can do. We can't leave on our own, so we have to ask someone to release us." The male ghost looked at them helplessly.
Su Nuobai and the other two took a mouthful of the rations and felt that the taste was sweet but a little sour.
She raised her hand and formed a seal, and a spell struck the ground.
The once lush and vigorous twining branches are now withering rapidly.
The restraints on the male and female ghosts were also completely gone.
The two looked at their feet in surprise, and then floated around happily.
Liang Ji watched the withered branches of the tree and turned to look at Su Nuobai: "Master Su, is this matter resolved?"
"Well, this was originally where a man and woman eloped and died. They were too deeply in love and didn't want to give up on each other. When they were caught by their families, they chose to end their lives."
"Their bodies were taken away by their families, but their souls were bound here. Now that I have released them, there will be no more intertwined branches here."
Su Nuoai looked at the grateful men and women in front of her and felt a little annoyed. What was going on?
