Chapter 117 Come down and talk to me
Wow!
Xiao Song and the others turned their heads quickly, their faces filled with shock - they had no idea that Master Qin was so romantic.
"Master She, what's going on?" Jiang Wei made a gesture, and all the team members changed their expressions. They quickly surrounded Master She and the female ghost.
At this point, everyone finally got a clear look at the ghost girl's attire. She wore the same blue and black uniform as them. The only difference was a black and gold koi fish embroidered on her collar. The fish's eyes were pure white, occasionally gleaming with silver light.
"Why, Master She, do you think that Yin and Yang blood alone is not enough and that we need to add righteousness and warm blood?"
The ghost's posture remained unchanged, and her movements as she floated above the bronze jade tripod became even more languid. Her eyes were half-lidded, and a mocking smile played at the corners of her mouth.
"Yin and Yang blood can connect heaven and earth and shock evil spirits. Assisted by a jade tripod as a formation and copper utensils as a furnace, it can not only shock evil spirits, but also seal the door to the underworld, killing two birds with one stone." Qin Qinsen ignored everyone's obstruction and walked straight towards the female ghost.
"Someone came in and blew up the tripod."
Although this scene looks like the female ghost blew up the bronze jade tripod in order to escape the shackles, judging from the vicious magic she uttered, she has become a part of the core of the formation and has no ability to move at all.
The ghost girl chuckled, "Yes, it was blown away directly, and the copper lock was gone."
Following the ghost girl's movements, Qin Qinsen found the copper lock that was broken into several pieces among the pile of rocks. Many copper chains around it were all damaged, and the copper lock was shattered into pieces and could not be put back together.
Seeing Qin Qinsen defenselessly facing the female ghost with his back to her, Jiang Wei immediately shouted, "Be careful."
Qin Qinsen waved his hand and gave a reassuring look, "You volunteered."
"Yes, voluntarily." The female ghost landed calmly and walked towards Qin Qinsen. "But I didn't expect that one person would not be enough, so She Yizhi sent another one."
"You are all from the underworld." Master She said slowly, "It is our duty to save the people."
Qin Qinsen rolled his eyes. "Do you understand sustainable development? If someone's life is gone, who's going to help them?"
"You don't want to."
Master She's face was gloomy, and his snow-white hair and beard were stained with shadows.
"Let's not talk about that for now. Let's talk about the issue of the thirty-seven ghosts and forty-nine living souls."
He was clearly smiling, but the way I looked at him made me feel cold all over.
Master She snorted coldly, "It's true that each generation is worse than the previous one. Do you know what the consequences will be if Yuxia Mountain is left alone? This little sacrifice is nothing compared to the lives of the entire Hai City!"
"Don't bother me with your own stupid ideas. I'm in the late stages of cancer. I'd rather die meaningfully than in a hospital. Stop trying to blackmail others."
The female ghost frowned, very dissatisfied with Master She's wording.
"She Yizhi, what are you waiting for?"
A low, hoarse male voice suddenly came from behind Jiang Wei. Before Jiang Wei could turn around, the cold ghost hand had already left five bloody holes on his shoulder.
"Captain Jiang!"
Just as Qiao Qiao was about to fly forward, she suddenly smelled a familiar sandalwood scent. The evil ghost that had just attacked her disappeared in the unpleasant gaze of the visitor.
The man twitched his nose, as if sniffing, "You are the one who broke my sacrificial technique."
"You are responsible for the water ghosts and the unjustly dead ghosts in Yuxia Lake." Qin Qinsen looked at Master She with a cold expression, "Master She, the so-called thirty-seven ghosts and forty-nine living souls... I'm afraid this happens every few years."
"This year I'm only missing one soul. With your Yin and Yang blood, I can protect the people for another ten years without any problem."
Master She's tacit words shocked Jiang Wei and the others. Xiao Song was even more blunt, "This is murder!"
"Yes, murder." The ghost sighed. "The one who taught us this forbidden technique said that it required a voluntary soul. Now it seems that except for me, no one is willing to do it. Otherwise, why would it have to happen again every few years?"
And she could only be trapped in the cauldron and watch everything happen.
"So you cast a curse on everyone, forcing them to completely forget Yuxia Mountain and silence everyone who experienced it. But you also had a backup plan. This formation not only imprisons me and seals the gate to the underworld, but also attracts and confuses ghosts. So you found Wu Liangqi, and the two of you joined forces, activating it every five years. Now..."
The ghost girl looked at Master She with a deep gaze, "If the bronze jade tripod hadn't been blown apart, you probably would never have set foot on Yuxia Mountain again in your lifetime."
"Stop talking nonsense. Now that the formation has been broken, it's either you who will die, or everyone in the city, or even the entire country, will die. It's better to sacrifice yourself and save Master She from worrying about you all night long."
"Wu Liangqi, you're really noisy." The ghost girl's eyes shifted, and countless ghost hands stretched out from the ground, trying to grab him. "You couldn't win against me back then, and now you're here to get in the way again. Why don't you come down and talk to me, so that you don't get lonely in the world of the living and do all sorts of evil things."
Leaping aside with a briskness belying his age, Wu Liangqi thrust his hands from his long sleeves. His fingers were pitch black, his palms white as jade. He grabbed two of the ghostly hands and tore them apart. "Yu Li'an, just be the center of the formation. Stay out of the way of the living."
Jiang Wei covered his wound and signaled Qiao Qiao and the others to take action. Even Master She took out his magical tools and prepared to join the battle.
"That's enough." Qin Qinsen frowned, and used the yellow talisman and magic formula together.
First, he used a yellow talisman to immobilize the entangled female ghosts Yu Li'an and Wu Liangqi, then swung a stone and struck Master She in the kneecap, forcing him to his knees, unable to move. He then cast a hemostatic spell on Jiang Wei and gave the team members nearby a few glares, which immediately reminded them of Master Qin's advice to "listen to Master Qin." They hurriedly gathered around Jiang Wei and stopped moving.
"If you have something to say, just keep talking. There's no logic in all this chatter." Pointing at the female ghost, Qin Qinsen said, "You are a ghost-crosser. Because you are dying, you volunteered to join the formation and seal the Yellow Springs Gate."
Then he pointed at Master She and said, "He uses the excuse of saving people to perform forbidden techniques, killing nearly a hundred people every five years."
"As for you..." Finally turning to Wu Liangqi who was trapped by the yellow talisman, Qin Qinsen released Wuliangqiu, "Wu Liangqi, sixty-four years old, a sinister villain who harmed countless people, died at the age of sixty-five."
Although Wu Liangqi couldn't move, his mouth was free, and he immediately retorted, "Impossible!"
"How is that impossible? Oh, it's your birthday today, then you're going to die."
"She Yizhi, kill him! Not only will the problems of Yuxia Mountain be completely resolved, but Shao Jizhong will also have a smooth life! I had already arranged everything in Yuxia Lake, but he killed the servant ghost and broke my formation, causing the plan to fail. As long as he can make up for the loss of the sacrifice, Shao Jizhong will naturally continue to live in wealth and peace!"
"Shao Jizhong? Linhai Group?" Qin Qinsen came to Master She's side. Wuliangqiu circled Master She twice before finally landing in Qin Qinsen's palm. "Master She, although you have few relatives and are destined to have only one son, there must be a limit to doting on your son, don't you think?"
No wonder even though all traces of Yuxia Mountain had been erased, it was still bought by Linhai Group.
