Chapter 241: Is age still the best?
"You think you're worthy enough to ask me to hand over the old man's body? Let him come out and see me!"
Jiang Nanxi narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and slapped the tombstone, directly breaking the luxurious tombstone into pieces.
With a loud bang.
After the tombstone shattered, a ghost was knocked away, and a secret passage in the big pit below was revealed.
"ah!"
The ghost let out a scream and fell from the sky along with the rubble of the tombstone.
"Master, help!"
The ghost was hit by Jiang Nanxi through the tombstone, and its soul became much dimmer, with a tendency to be torn apart.
After he fell from the sky, he didn't dare to face Jiang Nanxi head-on. He crawled into a big pit and disappeared.
"Little girl, you have such a bad temper!"
An old and majestic voice came from the big pit.
Jiang Nanxi looked towards the secret passage inside the big pit and saw bursts of thick black ghostly energy emanating from it.
It seems that this is just the entrance to the cemetery, and the real tomb of the master of the Xu family is deep in the secret passage.
These wealthy families are extremely particular about purchasing cemeteries. They usually do not bury the deceased where the tombstone is. Instead, they dig a large space underground and separate it into several burial chambers.
Some dignitaries in ancient times would build their tombs to look like large houses on earth, so that they could continue to live a wealthy life in the underworld after their death.
"If you know I'm coming, then get out and hand over the soul of my friend."
Jiang Nanxi looked at the big pit and said, "You are not qualified to negotiate a deal with me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
A sneer came from underground, and more and more ghostly energy overflowed from the secret passage of the big pit.
Ghostly energy swirled in this sunken area, covering the sky and directly blocking the light of the moon.
The environment suddenly became cold and dark.
The old voice said dissatisfiedly, "You little girl, you are so arrogant! How can you be so rude?"
"Show you some high technology."
“……?”
Jiang Nanxi took out two grenades, pulled the fuses, and threw them into the secret passage in the pit.
With a loud bang.
Another loud noise was heard.
This sunken area was directly blown deeper, and flames shot up into the sky, scaring away many wandering souls in the mass grave and making them run around in panic, not daring to get close at all.
"Stop it, stop it right there!"
The old voice came again, this time with some panic, obviously afraid that Jiang Nanxi would directly use a grenade to blow up the cenotaph to the ground!
He quickly said, "Bring my body here first so I can see if there is any damage!
If it's not damaged, I'll have your friend's soul sent back to you, and we'll make an exchange! I'll give you the soul, and you give me the body!"
After the Xu family set up the formation, the ghost of the old man of the Xu family did become more ferocious.
But the corpse is the ghost's fatal weakness, and he is still hoping that the corpse will be intact so that he can be resurrected. He has to get his corpse back first before dealing with this ignorant woman!
Jiang Nanxi thought for a moment before saying, "Sure, your body is right here, hurry up and return your soul!"
She took the old man's body out of the storage space and threw it on the ground nearby.
"Okay, okay, I'll take your friend out right away, just wait a moment!"
The voice coming from underground was filled with excitement.
After a while, a strong ghostly aura overflowed from the pit again, extinguishing the flames of the explosion.
Although the grenade collapsed the secret passage inside the pit, it did not affect the ghosts' entry and exit.
The voice from underground continued, "Your friend is my twenty-third concubine. I originally wanted to leave her to enjoy a good life in the underworld. Since you've come to ask for her, I'll return her to you."
As the ghost energy overflowed, Jiang Nanxi saw four ghosts with pale faces crawling out of the big pit, carrying an exquisite red sedan on their shoulders.
The master of the Xu family said, "The wedding is about to take place, and she insists on going back. I have no choice but to trap her in the sedan chair. This wedding sedan is a ghost weapon. It cannot be opened from the inside, only from the outside.
Go and lift the curtain of the sedan chair, and your friend's spirit will be able to come out."
With a bang.
The wedding sedan was placed on the ground.
The four ghosts carrying the sedan looked at Jiang Nanxi with fear, then floated towards the old man's body.
"Wait a minute!"
Seeing that they were about to carry the old man's body back, Jiang Nanxi said, "Let me open the sedan chair first and confirm that it is my friend's soul inside before you can leave."
The four ghosts carrying the corpse paused.
Jiang Nanxi walked towards the wedding sedan and opened the curtain, but...
There's nothing inside!
"Dare to play tricks on me?"
Jiang Nanxi's brows turned cold instantly, and she was about to attack the four ghosts, but suddenly a dazzling red light appeared in the wedding sedan.
Her body just stayed there, unable to move.
"Nanxi!"
Liu Qingyan ran over and pulled Jiang Nanxi away from the sedan chair, but found that she fell into his arms and her breathing stopped through her nose!
"Has your breathing stopped?"
Liu Qingyan's expression changed slightly. He first checked Jiang Nanxi's condition, then looked at the strange sedan chair.
There was a translucent figure in the empty sedan, it was Jiang Nanxi's soul!
The moment she lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, her soul was sucked out!
Liu Qingyan's eyes darkened, and he was about to take action to bring Jiang Nanxi's soul back, but he saw her blinking at him while sitting in the sedan chair.
Liu Qingyan paused.
Her voice came into his mind, "Watch my body. Wait for me outside. I'll go find them underground."
After hearing this, Liu Qingyan knew that Jiang Nanxi's soul was taken away on purpose, and he felt relieved.
While he was stunned, the curtain of the wedding sedan was closed again, and then he took Jiang Nanxi and went underground.
When Liu Qingyan saw the sedan chair disappear, he looked at the four ghosts carrying the corpse nearby.
They disappeared too!
He left with the old man's body!
Liu Qingyan thought for a while and decided to stay up there and watch over Jiang Nanxi's body until she came back.
If she doesn't come back in half an hour, he will take her body and go find them underground!
Jiang Nanxi's soul sat in the sedan chair and soon arrived at the underground space.
She didn't go out. She couldn't hear anything inside the sedan chair, which also had the effect of blocking her five senses.
But her soul is much stronger than the old man's, and she can sense the situation outside through her spiritual sense.
She heard a conversation.
"Master, your body has been retrieved!"
"Master, you're still the best. That little girl is so gullible! She and her friend dared to come to the Xu family for a feast, and they've already stepped into your trap!"
"Yes, yes, this girl and her friend have all eaten something that attracts souls. If they touch the sedan chair, their souls will be forcibly pulled out by you. It's impossible to guard against it!"
"Including this woman, there are now twenty-five of us. That's enough. Master, you can be resurrected!"
After the four ghosts carrying the sedan chair finished speaking one by one, the master of the Xu family said, "Of course, the old ones are the wisest. This little girl dares to fight me? Humph! She and her friend will become the nourishment for my resurrection!"
Take a quick look, is my body damaged? If it's not, we can start!"
