Chapter 976 The Returnee's Notes 50
"fine."
Xie Ning looked towards the river, recalling the sound of water just now. "They jumped into the river, but Uncle Wang said before that it wasn't a water ghost."
The characteristics of ghosts are generally related to the manner of death. In the client's account, this great-aunt died of depression, so it shouldn't have much to do with water... No, wait, that little ghost.
Wang Ze also considered this possibility: "Could it be that the child has turned into a water ghost?"
"It's very likely, or rather, a water monkey. But it doesn't look like a water monkey at all. It just has a physical body like a water monkey, because I just cut off its arm with a peach wood sword, not weakened its soul."
"That's true, but we haven't seen many things like this. Maybe it's special. We'll ask Master when we see it later."
Wang Ze had indeed never seen a ghost like the one Xie Ning described. He pointed to her arm and said, "Let me bandage you up first."
He had bandages in his bag, since bumps and scrapes are inevitable sometimes. Now that Xie Ning had expelled some of the yin energy, he could just apply some disinfectant and hemostatic medicine and bandage it.
"Are you sure you're okay leaving there?"
Wang Ze chuckled twice. "I put a wooden figure there. If the ghost runs from that direction, the bell will definitely ring, and the wooden figure can hold it off for a while. Then we can rush over."
Xie Ning was somewhat relieved and then told her about the sound she had just heard, "I just heard some music, it sounded like an ocarina."
The sound of the xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) at night was very sad.
"Moreover, when the music started, the little devil resisted even more fiercely, and its power could be sensed to have increased significantly in an instant."
She was almost able to subdue the little devil when she was interrupted by that music, which was a bit of a coincidence.
Wang Ze was startled and pulled Xie Ning to run towards where Ouyang Lin was. "Sister, you don't know, Ouyang Lin uses the sound of the xun to control ghosts. If you hear the sound of the xun, it's probably because Ouyang Lin has encountered a ghost."
If that brat is related to that old lady, he probably sensed something was going on with Ouyang Lin, which is why he suddenly erupted.
Wang Ze glanced to the side and saw that Xie Ning was running even faster than him, like a small cannonball.
"Slow down...slow down..." Wait, how can this little girl run so fast?!
Wang Ze felt like his lungs were about to explode, and he absolutely refused to admit that it was because he didn't exercise regularly.
Braving the howling night wind, Xie Ning took a shortcut. There was a railing about 1.5 meters high; if she climbed over it, she could reach Ouyang Lin.
Wang Ze watched as Xie Ning sprinted and leaped, flipping gracefully over the bar. He was so astonished that his jaw almost dropped. He knew he couldn't possibly do that, so he had to run to the side to open the door.
No key? No problem. He knows how to pry open doors. That's a skill, though it's best not to let others know.
When Xie Ning arrived, he saw Huang Lili put the beads she usually kept on her wrist around the ghost's neck. A strong wind blew around, and the ghost mechanically turned its head, allowing Xie Ning to see its appearance clearly.
Like the little ghost from before, her eye sockets were empty, and her mouth was split open, but it was sewn shut with red thread. She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which looked like it was from the Qing Dynasty.
Huang Lili cast a spell and threw down several beads. As the beads exploded, the red-clothed female ghost let out a scream. Ouyang Lin continued to play the xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) to suppress the ghost's power.
"It's not that hard to deal with, so how did Dad let it get out?"
Huang Lili muttered a few words, then took out her iron wire, intending to tie up the female ghost. But just as she got close, the female ghost suddenly grinned and laughed, and the string of beads around her neck broke instantly.
Suddenly, a pale blue hand grabbed Huang Lili by the neck and lifted her up.
"Forehead......."
The sharp, long fingernails pierced Huang Lili's neck in an instant.
Then, in the next instant, that hand was shattered. Huang Lili, still in shock, looked at Xie Ning who had suddenly jumped out. She almost, almost had her neck broken.
