Fang Xiu finally understood why the Hair Ghost had chosen Wang Erni as its host.
Wang Erni was born in Heishui Village. Her parents died early, making her an orphan. In addition, she had a large birthmark on her face and was considered ugly, so she suffered discrimination from a young age. Almost no one her age wanted to play with her.
This situation continued until the beautiful woman in the picture arrived.
That beautiful woman was the female corpse at the bottom of the river, named Lin Mengxi.
Just by hearing her name, you can tell that Lin Mengxi is not a villager of Blackwater Village.
Indeed, Lin Mengxi was abducted to be the wife of Wang Fugui, the village chief's grandson.
After arriving in Heishui Village, she suffered a lot and tried to escape many times. But how could she possibly outrun the native mountain people in the mountains? Every time she was caught, she was brought back and then abused.
But she never gave up, and it was precisely because she never gave up that she was looked down upon and ostracized by everyone.
So, by chance, the two people who were both rejected came together.
And so, Lin Mengxi and Wang Erni became good friends.
Lin Mengxi did not despise Wang Erni for her ugliness; she believed that Wang Erni's soul was beautiful, a hundred times better than those of the villagers.
Wang Erni was also very happy because this was her only friend since childhood, and she valued this friend more than her own life.
A year passed in this way. During that year, Lin Mengxi became pregnant several times, but she had abortions all of them. It is worth mentioning that there are no clinics in Blackwater Village, let alone birth control pills. Even if there were, no one would sell them to her.
One day, Lin Mengxi suddenly told Wang Erni that she had figured out the escape route and hoped that Wang Erni would set a fire while she was escaping to attract the villagers' attention.
Wang Erni asked her, "Why do you have to run away?"
She said her family and friends were outside the mountain, so she had to escape.
But what Wang Erni was thinking was, "The people outside the mountain are my friends, but what about me inside the mountain?"
She began to have doubts, doubts about their friendship, and doubts about whether Lin Mengxi, like the other villagers, looked down on her and only befriended her to figure out the escape route and get her to help cover for her.
That day, Wang Erni agreed to Lin Mengxi's request.
Lin Mengxi smiled happily; it was the first time Wang Erni had ever seen her smile so happily since she had known her.
On the night of her escape, Lin Mengxi was unusually cooperative with Wang Fugui's demands. Wang Fugui naively thought she had resigned herself to her fate, so he was very excited until he was exhausted.
After Wang Fugui fell asleep, Lin Mengxi ran away.
Many families in the village keep dogs, and some people patrol at night to prevent wild animals from entering the village, so a large fire is necessary to coordinate the operation.
At this moment, Wang Erni, who was supposed to set the fire, secretly ran to the village chief's house and told him that Lin Mengxi was going to escape.
Wang Erni's idea was simple: no matter what, she couldn't lose Lin Mengxi, her only friend, and she just wanted to keep Lin Mengxi by her side forever.
Of course, Wang Erni wasn't stupid. She instructed the village chief not to reveal that she was the one who had informed on them, and promised the village chief that she would act as a spy from now on and inform on him the next time she tried to escape.
The village chief readily agreed, and then led the villagers and hunting dogs to search for Lin Mengxi.
When Lin Mengxi, who hadn't run far, saw the countless torches lit up in the village, she knew that her plan had been exposed.
She knew she would soon be caught and taken back, where she would be imprisoned and abused.
Of course, she also knew that the villagers were able to find her so quickly because her best friend had told on her.
Under the double blow, Lin Mengxi felt extremely tired. She could no longer bear it and ultimately chose to jump into the Blackwater River to commit suicide.
When she learned of Lin Mengxi's death, Wang Erni completely broke down. She never thought she had done anything wrong. She just wanted Lin Mengxi to stay by her side forever. What was wrong with that?
So who was wrong?
The villagers of Blackwater Village must be wrong.
They drove Lin Mengxi to her death! Therefore, they deserve to die!!
With such a twisted mind, Wang Erni successfully attracted the attention of the Hair Ghost and became its host.
Stimulated by the strange hair, she naturally became a spirit master.
The two conditions for becoming a Spirit Master are: first, being in a life-or-death situation or experiencing a great mental shock; and second, having contact with the supernatural. Wang Erni meets both conditions.
Furthermore, because the hair ghost is a possessing type of ghost, its power has been continuously infecting Wang Erni's mind. Her spirituality has grown rapidly, and her already distorted mind has become even more distorted, eventually turning her into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.
The fact that her neck was cut open and her hair was entirely silver was enough to prove it.
After becoming a monster, her spiritual growth seemed to have no limit. Unlike ordinary spirit masters, she didn't need to constantly face life and death or be constantly stimulated. In this way, with the help of the hair monster, she successfully advanced to the second-level spirit master.
Then came the scene of her slaughtering the entire village. However, after the slaughter, she felt lonely, so she turned all the villagers into demon slaves.
This is the story of Wang Erni's life.
After reading about her life, Fang Xiu became increasingly interested in the abnormal group of spirit masters, and wondered if he could use the power of the supernatural to fight against the supernatural.
As one's strength increases, one will become increasingly entangled. What will happen when one's spirituality reaches 100%?
Could it turn into a ghost story?
Or... the ultimate goal of a Spirit Master is to become a monster.
Wang Erni's rapid spiritual growth perfectly illustrates this point: human spirit masters experience slow spiritual growth, but the more bizarre they become, the faster their spiritual growth accelerates.
If this is the truth about spirit masters, then this truth is truly despairing for humans.
However, all of this was irrelevant to Fang Xiu. He didn't care what the supernatural was, nor did he care who the supernatural was. He only knew that between himself and the supernatural, only one could survive.
Unfortunately, he will not die.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Lingxue returned. This time, she was wearing a dirty hat that she had picked up from somewhere, half of which was burnt.
The hat was so tattered that even a scavenger wouldn't pick it up, but Shen Lingxue wore it tightly.
After an unknown amount of time, the investigation bureau's rescue team finally arrived, and with their help, they successfully left Blackwater Village.
.........
.........
Investigation Bureau, Director's Office.
"What?! You said they were all seriously injured? What about Fang Xiu? Is Fang Xiu alright?" Wang Dehai listened to his subordinate's report in shock.
After hearing that Fang Xiu was alright, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"What exactly happened? How could the entire team be seriously injured even with a seasoned Spirit Master like Shen Lingxue leading them on a D-level mission?"
